McLaren’s Oscar Piastri stormed to victory at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix on Sunday, overtaking Max Verstappen and rising to the top of the Formula 1 driver standings.
Oscar Piastri continued his stellar start to the season by winning the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, securing back-to-back victories after his triumph in Bahrain and climbing to the top of the Formula 1 standings.

“Once I got on the inside, I wasn’t coming out of turn one in second,” Piastri said after the race.
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc rounded out the podium in third, while Piastri’s teammate Lando Norris recovered from a crash in qualifying to finish fourth, thanks to a well-executed race strategy.
