McLaren's handling in Baku proves to be challenging for Piastri, as he acknowledges encountering some sensitive instances.

In the heart of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, McLaren's young driver Oscar Piastri found himself navigating a challenging practice session. The Friday practice session was a bit of a rollercoaster for Piastri, as he nearly ended it in the same way as his teammate Lando Norris.

Piastri faced a few tricky moments during the session, but he remained optimistic. He stated that there were many positive aspects during the practice, but also acknowledged the challenging moments he encountered. The pace, he mentioned, is there, but it's not the easiest to make the most of it.

To help avoid gearbox problems, Piastri sought advice from his previous trainer, Dave Ryan. Ryan recommended specific adjustments and strategic changes that Piastri implemented in the Second Practice session (FP2) of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

The practice session was closely followed by F1 Paddock Updates, who released a new episode featuring Piastri's performance. F1TV also provided a commentary on his performance during the session.

Despite the challenges, Piastri expects a bit of a difference with tire choice for the rest of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. He mentioned that they tried a few things in FP2 to prepare for the upcoming races.

No mention of a double win for Piastri was made in the context of the Azerbaijan Grand Prix. However, with his resilience and determination, fans will be eagerly waiting to see how he fares in the upcoming races.
