Piastri will replace Daniel Ricciardo representing McLaren in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:2023 F1 driver line-up, after the the FIA’s Contract Recognition Board allowed him to exit a deal he previously had with Alpine.

“I’ve been through this situation before,” former world champion Jenson Button told Sky. “I wanted to leave my team♛ for another team. I have made mistakes in my career. I was a few years into my F1 career when I made this mistake.

🍃“The CRB decided agaiꦬnst me moving so I stayed with BAR.

“For Oscar it is different.

“He hasn’t even raced in an F1 ༺car. Alpine has funded his development and now he’s like: ‘You know what? I’ll go to them because they are better for my career!’

“He has got to look after No 1. But you can’t﷽ make enemies this early in your career.𒈔”

Another ex-F1 champion, Nico Rosberg, added on Sky: “Alpine really did such a bad job. It is unbelievable for such a high-profile team to m๊anage it so badly.

“Thꦅey invested millions into Piastri’s career but didn’t have him locked into a contract, so he ♒could go away and take an offer from McLaren.

“That’s really, really tough.

“Piastri’s manager Mark Webber? Great job. They got him a fantastic race seat at McLar𝄹en. That’s huge.

“Nevertheless it will be tough for Oscar to do ♍well there because L🗹ando is world-class. He is world championship material.

“I﷽t won’t be easy for Oscar to come in and to straight away do better than Daniel Ricciardo.”
