McLaren’s Oscar Piastri may have met Hollywood star Vin Diesel at the Miami GP, but the rest of his weekend was a non-stop disappointment as the Aussie slumped to second last after a brake pedal issue and tyre-gamble backfire. McLaren’s Instagram video features the Hollywood star asking Piastri whether he picks the colours himself, and erupting in laughter when the Aussie said yes. McLaren took a gamble on a different tyre strategy, putting Piastri on the soft compound to pick up positions early in the race. Piastri has had a rocky start to his debut season, with only one points finish so far.
