Oscar Piastri starts fifth in Jeddah and hopes to fight for the podium…
Oscar Piastri: “I will try to attack the Red Bull and Ferrari drivers, but at the same time I have a realistic attitude: we will see if I can move forward. Moreover, two Mercedes cars start behind me.
I think my partner and I got the most out of the McLaren cars yesterday, and if we manage to finish ahead of George Russell and Lewis Hamilton today, that would be great.
Admittedly, I would like the MCL38 to be a little faster on the straights, but I don’t think we have any serious problems with maximum speed, and last year there were situations where there were many more such problems. We’ll see what awaits us today, but the Mercedes cars are really fast on the straights. The situation cannot be called ideal, but I think our strengths will manifest themselves in other parts of the circuit.
If you are lucky, you can count on a maximum of fourth place.”
