Oscar Piastri has solidified his position at the top of the Formula One championship with a commanding 34-point lead. Despite this significant advantage, the McLaren driver, cautions against complacency.

Piastri's seventh victory of the season came at the Dutch Grand Prix, where his closest rival, Lando Norris, faced retirement due to a car malfunction. Piastri's success has come through strategic race management, as displayed in Zandvoort, reinforcing his determination to maintain momentum in forthcoming races.

Having matched the career wins of his manager, Mark Webber, Piastri is aware of the volatile nature of the sport. One non-finish could rapidly shift the landscape, and he is committed to pushing the limits to secure his championship dream.
