P5 in Mexico Grand Prix
Piastri finished fifth in the Mexico City Grand Prix Formula 1 race at Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez on Sunday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
A somewhat disappointing qualifying effort would put Piastri seventh on the starting grid. A two-stop strategy and opening on soft tyres would set the stage for a climb through the field. The McLaren youngster would lose a couple spots on the opening lap chaos and reside briefly in P9. He would spend the rest of the grand prix battling back to the front. Late overtakes of Esteban Ocon and George Russell would put him hot on the trail of Oliver Bearman. However, he could not catch the Haas rookie and would have to settle for fifth-place in Mexico City.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Australian rookie Piastri has quite the shoes to fill in his first season with Formula One, taking former McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo's spot as Lando Norris' teammate for the 2023 campaign. Piastri was quite the phenom in his last season with Formula 2 in 2021, winning a total of six times, earning 252 points, and walking away with the Driver's Championship after just 23 starts in the series. The driver of the No. 81 will have a lot of eyes on his on-track performance this year, as McLaren is famous for their incoming drivers having issues sufficiently adapting to the feeling and handling of the car. In the upcoming season, Piastri's greatest challenge will be learning how to adjust his racing style to fit the capabilities of the MCL36 and where he fits amongst all the new talent on the grid this season.
