Piastri: “Red Bull’s interest is nice, but I’m happy in McLaren”

Plates in Red Bull’s sights? In the Montreal paddock, one of the first images received by the photographers was that of a very relaxed conversation in favor of the lens between Toto Wolff of Mercedes and Jos Verstappen, Max’s father. Photographs which certainly do not calm the now usual rumors of a possible move of the four-time Dutch world champion to the court of the Silver Arrows.
In recent weeks, Motorsport colleagues had reported that, in the event of Max Verstappen’s farewell to Red Bull, the first name in Laurent Mekies’ notebook would be that of Oscar Piastri, who has been esteemed by the Anglo-Austrian team for years. Piastri’s response When asked on the subject on the Thursday of the Canadian Grand Prix, Oscar Piastri said that he had never had any talks from the rival team, at least until now, but he also explained that he welcomes these market rumors concerning him. “I wasn’t aware of it. Obviously there were no discussions or anything, but I’m pleased. There’s really not much more to add. I hope this can underline my value as a driver, which is good. But I’m very happy where I am, I have a lot of confidence in McLaren and I believe we will be able to win races and championships in the future. So I’m very happy where I am,” admitted Piastri in the Montreal paddock. Click here to add Formula Passion as your favorite source on Google Discover: you will find our content more easily!
