Piastri Prioritizes Long-Term Success over the Title Battle<\/h2>\n\nMcLaren driver Oscar Piastri has ruled out adopting a more aggressive approach in the fight for this year’s championship if it compromises his long-term success with the team. Piastri is in intense competition with his teammate, Lando Norris, for the drivers’ title.\n\nThe difference between the two was reduced to 31 points after Piastri complied with a controversial team order at the Italian Grand Prix.\n\nMcLaren’s team order, which forced Piastri to concede second position to Norris, raised questions about the team’s possible interference in the battle for the championship.\n\n\n

We’ve had very good conversations this week about what happened and what can be clarified, what can be improved.<\/p>\nOscar Piastri<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nIn an interview, Piastri stated that constructive conversations have already been held regarding the Monza incident and that he fully trusts McLaren’s handling of the situation.\n\nPiastri emphasized the importance of protecting the team’s success, as he believes his own success depends on McLaren’s success. When asked if he would adopt a more aggressive approach in the remaining eight races to secure the championship, Piastri replied that he would not do so “at the cost of future success”.\n\n\n
