How Oscar Piastri improved over F1’s Mexico GP weekend
Erstwhile F1 championship leader Piastri had a disappointing weekend in Mexico, but it could have been much worse for the McLaren driver after his poor qualifying result
Norris now leads the championship with 357 points, one more than Piastri (356). Max Verstappen (321) remains in third place, 36 behind Norris. There are still 116 points available from the final four grands prix, which include two sprints.

Oscar Piastri hopes his past experiences can help him in the F1 championship as he prepares for the Mexican Grand Prix.
Oscar Piastri is still unsure whether the changes to his driving style have helped him refind his groove with the McLaren after finishing fifth in Mexico City.
