“La Gazzetta Dello Sport”: “Formula 1 has a new leader in the driver’s world championship. Oscar Piatri, the ice boy of McLaren, overtakes his teammate Lando Norris with his victory at the Grand Prix of Saudi Arabia and takes first place in the World Cup ranking.”
“Corriere della sera”: “The key point at the start: Piatri attacks immediately, Verstappen gets in his way by pushing him out. He stays in the lead by cutting the curve: he is punished with five seconds, a punishment he had poorly cope with. He had said that it would be difficult to keep up with the Australian, so he dared to do so, and maybe he was similar to him: in relation to him: Concentration and wildness. “
“Mundo Deportivo”: “Piatri marks its territory in front of Verstappen in Saudi Arabia and is the new leader in the Formula 1 World Championship.”
“Sport”: “Piatri shines in Saudi Arabia and is the new World Cup leader. Oscar Piatri is the leader whom McLaren needs. While his team-mate Lando Norris repeatedly accumulate mistakes that force him to make impossible comebacks in the race, the Australian is always there to take advantage of it.”
“As”: “From the ‘papaya rules’ and the soft hand of McLaren, an ice-cold and unscrupulous driver has emerged, who can stand up for his forehead and give him a sample of his own medicine.”
