Oscar Piastri says McLaren will prioritise the F1 Constructors' Championship over helping team-mate Lando Norris win the drivers' title.
Oscar Piastri says McLaren will prioritise the F1 Constructors' Championship rather than helping Lando Norris in his bid to catch Max Verstappen in the Drivers' Championship. McLaren are 42 points behind Red Bull in the constructors' standings but have had a stronger car at most events in the last three months since Norris won his maiden F1 race at the Miami Grand Prix in early May.
'We can rock up and be pretty confident we'll be, if not the quickest then one of the quickest, and I think that sets us up really nicely for next year. “I feel like I'm growing in confidence. Getting some more good results and just learning more through my second year as well. 'I want to learn as much as I can and have as much success as I can this year. But ultimately, I think trying to set up a really strong run next year is a realistic target at the moment.
