Oscar Piastri, leading the Formula One championship, conceded that the title chase has narrowed to a contest between him and McLaren teammate Lando Norris. Piastri, holding a 16-point advantage over Norris, approaches this weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix with a firm eye on sustaining his lead as F1 heads into its August recess.
