Piastri Moves Past Azerbaijan Misstep: Focus on Singapore
Formula One leader Oscar Piastri shrugged off a disastrous race in Azerbaijan to focus on his successful approach for Singapore. Despite a crash-filled weekend cutting his lead, Piastri remains confident in his strategy. McLaren targets a second constructors' championship, with Verstappen poised as the main competitor.

Formula One championship leader Oscar Piastri has swiftly put his challenging weekend in Azerbaijan behind him, seeking to regain momentum at the forthcoming Singapore Grand Prix. The McLaren driver, who experienced a race-ending crash in both qualifying and the race, has acknowledged the obvious mistakes.
In Baku, his lead over teammate Lando Norris was reduced to 25 points. Piastri stated that these lessons were easy to absorb, and he is now preparing for this weekend's race with renewed focus. Despite the setbacks, Piastri remains committed to the strategies that have previously led him to success.
With seven races remaining, Max Verstappen poses a significant threat to McLaren's aspirations, as he trails Piastri by 69 points. McLaren aims for a second consecutive constructors' championship with additional points, while Lando Norris, responding sarcastically, downplayed concerns over Verstappen's comeback.
