In a world of few guarantees, Oscar Piastri winning junior single-seater championships became one of them during his climb up the motorsport ladder. In just three years, the Australian won enough trophies to host his own edition of the Oscars. Across those three seasons, Oscar grabbed the Road to F1 by the scruff of the neck, smashing several records on his way to becoming the first driver to win Formula Renault, Formula 3 and Formula 2 consecutively. After joining McLaren in late 2022, Oscar officially linked up with the team at the end of the F1 season to begin an extensive preparation programme, which included the Abu Dhabi Young Driver Test and private tests. He opted to run #81 on his McLaren car, which was his number in karting.
