Mark Webber, the former Red Bull F1 driver and Piastri’s manager, appeared on Sky Sports after the race to discuss his fellow Australian’s achievement. He used the word “confusing” to describe Piastri’s maiden win in Hungary, where a team orders call from McLaren put him back into the lead late on. This was anything but.

Oscar Piastri says he’s happy with the apparent flexible rear wing on his race-winning car but it’s not a “magic bullet” making McLaren the team to beat in Formula 1 ahead of the Singapore Grand Prix.

After weeks of giving chase, McLaren seized the lead in the constructors’ championship last weekend at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, finally overtaking Red Bull and cementing its spot atop F1 for the first time since 2014.
