Piastri heartened by P3: 'We were almost out of it in Q1'
F1 News
Oscar Piastri very surprisingly grabbed third place during qualifying for the British Grand Prix. Not only does Piastri himself start up front, but teammate Lando Norris could also have a shot at making things difficult for Max Verstappen, who starts from first place.
"Very, very, very happy... What a qualifying session. We were almost out of Q1. The car was a rocket ship in Q2 and Q3, and I put a good lap together," the Australian told Jenson button on the grid in Silverstone.
Piastri hugely satisfied
"Yesterday we had a bit of a rough day, we were a bit quicker than we looked. We did a better job today, these conditions today we do well in them all the time," said the McLaren driver.
"We’ve had a fair few moments like that but to pull that off in Q3 like that was a mega result and both of us have now got the new bits on our car and they’re working really well," Piastri said happily.
