Oscar Jack Piastri ( pee-AST-ree; born 6 April 2001) is an Australian racing driver who competes in Formula One for McLaren. Piastri has won five Formula One Grands Prix across three seasons.

Born and raised in Melbourne, Piastri began his career in radio-controlled racing before moving into karting aged nine. Graduating to junior formulae in 2016, Piastri won his first championship at the 2019 Formula Renault Eurocup with R-ace GP. He then won both the 2020 FIA Formula 3 and 2021 FIA Formula 2 Championships back-to-back with Prema, becoming the sixth driver in history to win the GP2/Formula 2 title in their rookie season. Piastri is the only driver in history to win Formula Renault, Formula Three and Formula Two—or equivalent—championships in successive seasons.

A member of the Alpine Academy from 2020 to 2022, Piastri signed with McLaren in 2023 to partner Lando Norris, following a contract dispute with Alpine. He made his Formula One debut at the Bahrain Grand Prix, achieving his first career podium in his rookie season at the Japanese Grand Prix. Retaining his seat for 2024, Piastri achieved his maiden victory in Hungary, becoming the fifth Australian driver to win a Formula One Grand Prix, and repeated this feat in Azerbaijan. In 2025, he took his maiden pole position at the Chinese Grand Prix.

As of the 2025 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, Piastri has achieved five race wins, two pole positions, four fastest laps and 14 podiums in Formula One. Piastri is contracted to remain at McLaren until at least the end of the 2028 season.

Junior career

Karting

Piastri started racing remote-controlled cars at a national level before beginning his karting career in 2011. Having gone professional and competed in various Australian races and championships in 2014, Piastri began competing in European and other CIK-FIA sanctioned karting championships with Ricky Flynn Motorsport the following year. He moved to the United Kingdom to further his racing career in 2016, finishing sixth in the 2016 World Championship in Bahrain.

Formula 4

In early 2016, Piastri landed his first major sponsorship, HP Tuners (founded and owned by his father), which helped fund his racing career. This was displayed when on his racing suit and car during the GP3 Series, F3 and F2 season. Later in 2016, Piastri made his single-seater debut in selected rounds of the Formula 4 UAE Championship with Dragon F4, claiming two podiums to take sixth in the championship. In September 2022, Red Bull Racing principal Christian Horner revealed that he missed a chance to sign Piastri to their junior team during his Formula 4 years. In 2017, Piastri was named as part of the TRS Arden Junior Racing Team's line-up for the British F4 championship. There he claimed six wins and six pole positions to finish as runner-up to Jamie Caroline.

Formula Renault Eurocup

In 2018, Piastri made his debut in the championship, reuniting with Arden. Claiming three podiums, with a highest placed finish of second at the second race at Hockenheim, he finished the season ninth in the championship. In December 2018, it was announced Piastri would switch to reigning team champions R-ace GP for the 2019 championship. He claimed his first victory in the series at Silverstone and repeated with a second win at the same venue a day later. He became the first driver to win three races in 2019 after taking victory at Spa-Francorchamps in July, and became the champion after taking a win and fourth place at the final round at Yas Marina.

FIA Formula 3 Championship

In December 2018, Piastri took part in the GP3 Series post-season test at Yas Marina with Trident.

In October 2019, Piastri joined the post-season test with reigning FIA Formula 3 team champions Prema Racing. In January 2020, the Italian outfit signed Piastri to contest the upcoming season, alongside Logan Sargeant and 2019 Formula Regional European champion Frederik Vesti.

Piastri started third on the grid for his debut race at the Red Bull Ring. He collided with pole-sitter Sebastián Fernández at the first corner but avoided damage and went on to take victory. He then stated that "he thought [his] first Formula 3 race had ended in the first 10 seconds." Piastri took three consecutive second-place finishes at both Hungaroring races and the first Silverstone feature race, before his first retirement of the season came at the following Silverstone sprint race when a stuck-open DRS forced him to withdraw. Teammate Sargeant took the lead of the championship from Piastri at the second Silverstone feature race after Piastri struggled with reliability issues in qualifying. Piastri started fifth for the sprint race in Barcelona, but overtook multiple cars to take the lead before the end of the first lap. He held his position to take his second victory. Piastri reclaimed the championship lead after finishing fifth at the following Spa-Francorchamps feature race, but dropped back again after being penalised for an illegal overtake in the sprint race, which Sargeant won.

Piastri was penalised in qualifying at Monza for impeding Jake Hughes and started the feature race in 15th place. He charged to third place by the end of the race, benefiting from Sargeant being involved in a collision, to retake the championship lead. Piastri retired from the sprint race after he was hit by Clément Novalak, but was also issued a five-place grid penalty for the next race for earlier forcing David Beckmann off the track. Despite his retirement, Piastri maintained the lead of the championship after his teammates collided with each other.

Piastri lined up 16th on the grid for the final feature race at the Mugello Circuit and failed to score points after finishing 11th. Title rival Sargeant finished sixth, leaving both drivers tied on 160 points going into the final race. Sargeant started the sprint race six places ahead of Piastri, but was eliminated after a collision on the first lap. Piastri's only remaining title rival, Théo Pourchaire, was unable to bridge the points gap and Piastri finished seventh to claim the championship title, three points ahead of Pourchaire and four ahead of Sargeant.

FIA Formula 2 Championship

2021 British Grand Prix (51349300361)

In December 2020, Piastri announced that he would continue with Prema Racing into Formula 2, replacing the departing Mick Schumacher and partnering Ferrari Driver Academy member Robert Shwartzman for the 2021 season. Piastri finished fifth in his debut race. In the second race, Piastri started from sixth and made up places before overtaking fellow Alpine junior Zhou Guanyu on the final lap to take the lead, claiming his first Formula 2 race win. Piastri started the feature race from eighth place but passed multiple cars to take the lead by lap 13 of 32. He was later forced into retirement after making contact with Dan Ticktum and spinning with two laps remaining. Piastri took consecutive second-place finishes at the Monaco round to take second place in the championship standings behind Zhou.

Piastri retired from the first sprint race in Baku after a collision on the first lap, but finished second in the feature race. He claimed pole position at Silverstone, and took the lead of the championship after finishing sixth in the first sprint race. At the conclusion of the fourth round, he held the championship lead by five points over Zhou. At Monza, Piastri took his first feature win in the series which included a battle on lap 25 with Zhou, and increased his championship lead with another pole and win at Sochi. Piastri became the second driver that season after Jüri Vips to win two races on the same weekend, finishing first in Jeddah's second sprint race and being in the lead at the time the feature race was aborted. The Australian clinched the title with a podium in race one at Yas Marina, thus becoming the third driver to win the championship in their rookie season. He capped off his season with a win in the feature race, his fourth in a row, which meant that Piastri had won six races, more than any other driver that season.

With his championship, Piastri joined an illustrious company of Nico Rosberg, Lewis Hamilton, Nico Hülkenberg, Charles Leclerc, and George Russell, as the only drivers to win the GP2/F2 title in their rookie seasons. He also became just the fifth driver after Hamilton, Hülkenberg, Leclerc and Russell to win the GP3/F3 title, and then the GP2/F2 title the following year, and the first driver to win three consecutive F1 feeder series' championships, with his 2019 Formula Renault Eurocup title.

Formula One

Test driver

Renault/Alpine (2020–2022)

Piastri joined the Renault Sport Academy in January 2020. After winning the FIA Formula 3 Championship in 2020, he took part in his first Formula One test in October with the Renault F1 Team, driving the Renault R.S.18 at Bahrain International Circuit alongside fellow academy drivers Christian Lundgaard and Zhou Guanyu. He remained part of the now-rebranded Alpine Academy in 2021 and drove the Alpine A521 in the post-season young drivers' test at Yas Marina Circuit in December.

After his Formula 2 title victory, Piastri was appointed as Alpine F1 Team's reserve driver for the 2022 season. He was also made available as a reserve driver for McLaren following an agreement between the two teams. He took part in Alpine's testing sessions in the A521 throughout the season, including at the Circuit of the Americas, Losail International Circuit and Silverstone Circuit. McLaren team principal Andreas Seidl later confirmed that Piastri had a private two day testing session in a previous-spec McLaren car at Circuit Paul Ricard the week before the São Paulo Grand Prix.

2022 contract dispute

In June 2022, strong rumours emerged suggesting Piastri would drive for Williams in 2023 on loan from Alpine, who were initially expected to retain Esteban Ocon and Fernando Alonso. However, in August, Alonso announced that he would leave the team to replace the retiring Sebastian Vettel at Aston Martin. Alpine then announced Piastri would replace Alonso in 2023, although the press release contained no quotes from Piastri himself. Piastri immediately rejected Alpine's announcement via a post on Twitter, stating that he had not signed a contract with the team and that he would not be driving for them in 2023. Alpine team principal Otmar Szafnauer followed up by criticising Piastri's actions and "integrity as a human being", saying that he expected loyalty from the former academy driver, and threatened to take the contract matters to court.

A hearing of the FIA's Contract Recognition Board (CRB) commenced on 29 August 2022 with the intention of determining whether Piastri was contracted to Alpine, or if he was free to join a different team for 2023. Had Alpine won their case with the board, the team could have obligated Piastri to fulfil his contract and race for them in 2023, or it could have sought a compensation fee for Piastri's services from any other interested teams. Prior to the Dutch Grand Prix, the CRB ruled against Alpine, with Piastri's move to McLaren confirmed shortly thereafter. In their final judgement the CRB also revealed the date on which Piastri had formally signed his McLaren contract which was the 4 July 2022 – one day after the British Grand Prix had taken place. This contract initially only guaranteed Piastri with a reserve role for 2023, with an upgrade to a race seat dependent on the Woking team being able to agree a contract termination with Daniel Ricciardo – which was agreed upon prior to the Belgian Grand Prix. Piastri said a "breakdown in trust" between him and Alpine was behind his decision to leave the Enstone-based team.

McLaren (2023–present)

2023: Rookie season

Piastri raced for McLaren in 2023 alongside Lando Norris. Alpine agreed to end Piastri's contract early to allow Piastri to join McLaren in the post-season testing session immediately after the 2022 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. In his first race in the Bahrain Grand Prix, Piastri was running as high as 8th. However, he retired from the race on lap 14, where his car failed to restart after a steering wheel change. In a chaotic Australian Grand Prix, his first home race, Piastri scored his first points in Formula One and for McLaren by finishing in eighth. Piastri finished 11th in the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, 2 seconds shy of 10th place and 19th in the Miami Grand Prix. Piastri finished 10th in the Monaco Grand Prix, one place behind team-mate Norris, earning his second points finish of the season. Piastri qualified 10th and started 9th in Spain. He failed to convert his starting position into points and eventually finished 13th. In Canada, Piastri qualified 9th despite crashing in qualifying and started 8th for the race. He ran as high as 5th before the safety car came out. After the restart he lost several positions and crossed the line in 12th position, classified 11th after Norris was issued a five-second penalty. Piastri finished just seventh-tenths behind Bottas to end a frustrating race for him and McLaren.

At the British Grand Prix, with the new car upgrades, Piastri qualified in a personal best third behind Norris. During the race, Piastri managed to stay in 3rd before his pit stop. However, after he pitted, Kevin Magnussen's retirement brought out the safety car and let Lewis Hamilton jump him in the pit stops. He ultimately finished 4th, a career best, less than a second behind home hero Hamilton, who finished 3rd. Piastri finished 5th in the Hungarian Grand Prix, after qualifying 4th and running as high as second position prior to the first set of pit stops. For the Belgian Grand Prix, Piastri qualified in second position for the sprint, 0.011 seconds off of polesitter Max Verstappen. During the sprint, he would jump polesitter Max Verstappen in the pits, and would go on to lead a Formula One race for the first time in his career. However, his fortunes changed drastically on lap 4 when Fernando Alonso spun and retired, leading to a safety car and allowing Verstappen to pass him on the Kemmel Straight. Piastri would finish six seconds behind Verstappen, achieving his first top-three finish in his Formula One career. On race day, however, Piastri retired on the first lap after colliding with Ferrari's Carlos Sainz at La Source corner.

On 20 September, Piastri signed a contract extension to stay with McLaren until the end of 2026. Days later, he qualified in second for the Japanese Grand Prix, behind Max Verstappen and ahead of his teammate Lando Norris. This is the first time he has raced at the Suzuka International Racing Course and his highest Grand Prix qualifying position to date. He finished the race in third behind Norris to secure his first podium finish in Formula One, becoming the first rookie to do so since Lance Stroll in the 2017 Azerbaijan Grand Prix. This is also McLaren's first double podium finish of the season and their first since the 2021 Italian Grand Prix.

Piastri achieved his first sprint race win at the following 2023 Qatar Grand Prix, after qualifying on pole position in the sprint shootout for the first time in his Formula One career. For the race itself, he finished second, ahead of teammate Norris, to earn his best finish in Formula One, and second full race podium of the season, as well as back-to-back driver of the day awards. He finished just 4.8 seconds behind the winner, Max Verstappen.

Piastri finished 2023 9th in the championship with 97 points compared to teammate Norris's 205 points. During the season he took 2 podiums as well as the pole and sprint win in Qatar with 1 more sprint podium in Belgium.

2024: Maiden wins

Piastri (pictured at the Dutch Grand Prix) took two victories in 2024 as McLaren won the World Constructors' Championship.

Piastri opened his 2024 campaign with eighth at the Bahrain Grand Prix, followed by fourth-placed finishes in Saudi Arabia and Australia. He claimed eighth again at both the Japanese and Chinese Grands Prix. In Miami, McLaren emerged as challengers to championship leaders Red Bull; Piastri dropped to thirteenth following a collision in his battle for second with Carlos Sainz Jr., as teammate Lando Norris took victory. He qualified second at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix—demoted to fifth with a grid penalty for impeding Kevin Magnussen—and finished fourth. Piastri qualified and finished second to Charles Leclerc at the Monaco Grand Prix, prior to claiming fifth and seventh at the Canadian and Spanish Grands Prix, respectively. He finished second in both the sprint and main race at the Austrian Grand Prix. In Britain, he climbed to second from fifth in the wet before a belated switch to intermediate tyres dropped him to fourth; he fractured a rib during the Grand Prix due to an improper seat fit, which he sustained until the summer break. Piastri qualified second for the Hungarian Grand Prix before overtaking teammate Norris into the first corner; McLaren then allowed Norris to undercut him prior to ordering a position-swap. He allowed Piastri past with two laps remaining, who claimed his maiden victory to become the fifth Australian to win a Formula One Grand Prix. Norris commented that the result was "fair" and "honest", conceding that he lost the race at the start. Piastri finished second in Belgium after a disqualification for George Russell, promoting him to fourth in the standings—ahead of Sainz—before finishing fourth at the Dutch Grand Prix. He led the majority of the Italian Grand Prix after a first-lap overtake on Norris, before a strategic error saw him finish second to the one-stop of Leclerc. Qualifying second to Leclerc in Azerbaijan, Piastri claimed another victory following a race-long battle for the lead. He then took third in Singapore, before finishing fifth at the United States Grand Prix. Eighth-placed finishes at the Mexico City and São Paulo Grands Prix—including second at the latter sprint after being ordered to allow Norris to win—were followed by seventh-place in Las Vegas after a false start penalty. Norris returned the favour at the chequered flag for the Qatar Grand Prix sprint, allowing Piastri to take victory before he finished third in the main race. He finished the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix in tenth after a first-lap collision with Max Verstappen. Piastri ended the season fourth in the World Drivers' Championship on 292 points—82 behind runner-up Norris—with two victories from eight podiums, helping McLaren win their first World Constructors' Championship since 1998.

2025

Piastri (pictured at the Japanese Grand Prix) is one of the favourites for the 2025 World Drivers' Championship.

McLaren entered 2025 as title favourites, with Piastri expected to challenge teammate Lando Norris for the World Drivers' Championship. Three days prior to the start of his campaign, McLaren announced a multi-year contract extension with Piastri until at least the end of the 2028 season. He qualified on the front-row for the season-opening Australian Grand Prix, behind teammate Norris; he challenged Norris for the lead before spinning in wet conditions, ultimately finishing ninth. After finishing second in the sprint, he took his maiden pole position at the Chinese Grand Prix, dominating the race ahead of Norris to claim his first victory of the season. He finished third in Japan behind Max Verstappen and Norris. Piastri took pole for the Bahrain Grand Prix, cruising to a 15-second winning margin and moving within three points of Norris. He took another victory in Saudi Arabia to become the first Australian to lead the World Drivers' Championship since 2010.

Driver profile

Composure

2024-08-25 Motorsport, Formel 1, Großer Preis der Niederlande 2024 STP 3934 by Stepro
Piastri (pictured at the 2024 Dutch Grand Prix) has been acclaimed by drivers and critics for his composure under pressure.

Piastri has been noted by critics for his composure under pressure. In 2023, Scott Mitchell-Malm of The Race compared his "relaxed intensity" to that of Max Verstappen. Upon winning the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix, Luke Smith of The New York Times stated that "stress isn’t an emotion one would associate with Piastri. His calm, collected demeanor has been present right from his junior days." This quality prompted several journalists to list him as a favourite for the 2025 World Drivers' Championship after the Bahrain Grand Prix, with Martin Brundle comparing him to Alain Prost. Andrew Benson of BBC Sport stated "combining consistent speed [with] mental solidity and racing decisiveness [makes him] a formidable rival". After winning the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, title rival Verstappen stated "he's very calm in his approach, and I like that. [...] He delivers when he has to, barely makes mistakes—and that's what you need when you want to fight for a championship".

Development

2025 Japan GP - McLaren - Oscar Piastri - FP1 (2)
Piastri (pictured at the 2025 Japanese Grand Prix) has been noted for his development across his debut seasons.

Piastri has also been lauded for his adaptability, with race engineer Tom Stallard commending his ability to identify flaws in real-time and make improvements without data analysis. His ability to promptly learn from mistakes was initially noted by his engineer in the F4 UAE Championship. Sky Sports described his rookie campaign as "very impressive", noting that his tyre management required improvement. He was noted for his race pace development throughout 2024, as he took his maiden victories in Hungary and Azerbaijan—the latter was described by Luke Smith of The New York Times as a "coming-of-age drive". By 2025, Jake Boxall-Legge of Autosport opined that he had eradicated the tyre management and qualifying pace issues he experienced in his earlier seasons.

Personal life

Oscar Piastri was born to Chris and Nicole (née MacFadyen) Piastri in Melbourne, Australia. He grew up in the Melbourne suburb of Brighton with his three sisters. He was privately educated at Haileybury College Melbourne and then Haileybury and Imperial Service College in England as a boarding pupil on a sports scholarship. Chris Piastri served as his son's mechanic during Oscar's early racing years in Australia and is now the founder and owner of HP Tuners, a vehicle diagnostics automotive software company. He has Italian, Yugoslavian and Chinese heritage. He is a keen Richmond Tigers supporter. As well as supporting Australia's national cricket team, he follows the Delhi Capitals in the IPL, after a post on his X profile asking for recommendations of which team to support.
