In a thrilling showdown at the Chinese Formula One Grand Prix, Australian driver Oscar Piastri claimed his first victory of the season 🌟, leading a McLaren one-two as Ferrari faced a dramatic double disqualification. 🚨
Piastri, who started on pole, dominated the race with precision, telling his team, "Mega job guys. The car was very, very lovely"—a cheeky nod to rival Max Verstappen’s signature catchphrase. Teammate Lando Norris held onto second place despite a nerve-wracking ‘long’ brake pedal that nearly cost him spots. 😰
The drama didn’t stop there: Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton were both disqualified post-race ⚠️—Leclerc for an underweight car and Hamilton for excessive skid wear. Hamilton earlier clashed with Leclerc, snapping the Ferrari’s front wing in a tense mid-race moment. 🏎️💥
With this win, McLaren remains unbeaten this season 🔥, while Norris extends his championship lead over Verstappen. The young Brit now leads with 44 points, proving McLaren’s early dominance. Meanwhile, rookie Andrea Kimi Antonelli climbed to sixth after Ferrari’s penalty shake-up. 📈
