Piastri's talent is crystal clear because of those junior series titles - with F3 and F2 won back-to-back in 2020 and 2021, matching the meteoric rises of other F1 top guns like George Russell and Charles Leclerc.

He's serious, adaptable, and wrung the neck of his McLaren MCL60 in Jeddah - where there's no room for error - to get it into Q3.

He now needs to deliver over his rookie season.
