Contact with Antonelli
Piastri finished fifth in the Sao Paulo Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Interlagos Circuit on Sunday afternoon.
ANALYSIS
Piastri would start fourth on the grid and look to makeup for the disastrous start to his weekend in Brazil. The young driver would have problems early as he would make contact with Kimi Antonelli after the restart for Gabriel Bortoleto's early-race crash. Piastri would later receive a 10-second time penalty for that collision. He would race P2 for the middle portion of the grand prix before taking the lead briefly prior to his lap 38 pit stop. Piastri would serve his penalty and rejoin the order in P7. He would once again race up to P2 for a second pit stop that would see him settle into fifth-place down the stretch.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Australian rookie Piastri has quite the shoes to fill in his first season with Formula One, taking former McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo's spot as Lando Norris' teammate for the 2023 campaign. Piastri was quite the phenom in his last season with Formula 2 in 2021, winning a total of six times, earning 252 points, and walking away with the Driver's Championship after just 23 starts in the series. The driver of the No. 81 will have a lot of eyes on his on-track performance this year, as McLaren is famous for their incoming drivers having issues sufficiently adapting to the feeling and handling of the car. In the upcoming season, Piastri's greatest challenge will be learning how to adjust his racing style to fit the capabilities of the MCL36 and where he fits amongst all the new talent on the grid this season.
