Oscar Piastri rues his poor luck as he relinquished Formula 1's Miami Grand Prix sprint win to McLaren team-mate Lando Norris

Two seasons ago, in the midst of one of his traditional pre-race grid walk-and-interview segments, Formula One television commentator Martin Brundle stopped young Australian driver Oscar Piastri as the rookie made his way to his car and asked Piastri a question about the upcoming race.

Oscar Piastri has expressed that he hopes his luck turns as he rued a “cruel” Safety Car late in the Formula 1 Miami Grand Prix Sprint race costing him a potential win. Piastri appeared on track to back up his consecutive victories in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia with more success in the Sprint as he led the truncated encounter in Miami.
