Piastri is showing that he is the real deal.
He's pretty level headed on the track.

Au revoir Oliver Oakes.

Alpine is now in the hands of Flavio.

Au revoir Jack Doohan next?

Au revoir Jack Doohan next?

Well that didn't take long.  A five race holiday and a chance for Colapinto to jump in the blender of this bad tasting racing margarita.  Piastri and his agent look like geniuses now.

if Piastri manages to stay up in the top few the next few rounds he has to be in with a bloody good shot at the title even if the competition comes on strong in the 2nd half.

The flexi-wing adjustment for Spain will be telling.
Piastri (and McLaren/Norris) need to make hay whilst the sun shines. McLaren think it won't change anything they're currently doing, but I'd suggest that all the teams would be pushing to the current limit.

Shame for Doohan. He knew what he was getting into. I do rate Colapinto, but doubt he'll push the thing any better than Pierre. Good luck to him.
