Oscar Piastri starts second and hopes to fight for victory…
Oscar Piastri: “The second starting position is very good, but I don’t know yet what pace Max Verstappen is capable of, because we worked with him on different programs in training and were on different tires all the time on the track. Although I have no doubt that he will also go very fast.
“We are very competitive this weekend anyway and I hope we can use this advantage. Of course, McLaren has the opportunity to earn a lot of points today, and the team doesn’t care in which order my partner and I finish. He and I have been on the track a lot in the last year and a half and we know what to expect from each other.
Of course we both want to win, but we also have to think about the interests of the team. However, when choosing the tactics we acted as usual, although we took into account the specific conditions that accompanied several of our previous races. We still have to wait and see what the weather will be like today, but some of the tactical decisions that the team made were very good.
I think we have a confident attitude, we know what is required of us and then we will see what we can do.”
