Putting an end to the drama surrounding Oscar Piastri s 2023 season in F1

Earlier in the summer break, Alpine had announced that Oscar Piastri would be racing for the French outfit in 2023. The announcement came after the team was given the news that two-time world champion Fernando Alonso had decided to join Aston Martin for the next season and beyond. Piastri, in a shocking turn of events, immediately denied that he signed any contract with Alpine to race for the team in 2023. In a social media statement, Oscar Piastri wrote: “I understand that, without my agreement, Alpine F1 have put out a press release late this afternoon that I am driving for them next year. This is wrong and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I will not be driving for Alpine next year.” Oscar Piastri@OscarPiastriI understand that, without my agreement, Alpine F1 have put out a press release late this afternoon that I am driving for them next year.

This is wrong and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I will not be driving for Alpine next year. Unlike the way things unfolded with Alpine, Piastri, too, has now confirmed that he will be racing for the Woking-based team in 2023. Daniel Ricciardo's future at McLaren has been in question since the very beginning of the 2022 season, given his performance gap to teammate Lando Norris. Just before heading into this year's Belgian Grand Prix, it was confirmed that the eight-time Grand Prix winner was cutting his deal short to part ways with McLaren at the end of the season. No confirmation has been made regarding Ricciardo's plans for the next year and beyond. What's your favorite race of the 2022 season so far? Tell us in the comments below..
