Chinese GP: Oscar Piastri beats Lando Norris in dominant McLaren one-two with Lewis Hamilton in sixth for Ferrari | F1 News

Oscar Pastari defeated his teammate Lando Norris while McLaren closed two dominant in the Chinese Grand Prix, while Ferrari illegal drivers were excluded.

PiaSSTRI has never looked PiaSSTRI as if he was giving up the victory, the third of his career in F1, and he got an ideal response after spinning last week at his event in Melbourne.

Norris got a scratch in the closing rolls due to the brake problem but stuck to the second of Russell, which made a successive platform to start the season in third place.

Charles Licerk and Luis Hamilton ranked fifth and sixth, respectively, but they were excluded for illegal cars, leaving Ferrari to stay away from the Sunday race in Shanghai without points.

Hamilton was excluded to wear excessive wooden plate below Ferrari, the same violation that was assigned second place in 2023 the United States when he was a Mercedes driver.

Meanwhile, Leclerc and Pierre Gasly, which was originally ranked 11th, was removed at the same time from the race due to weight loss cars. Both drivers are found to be 1 kg under the maximum weight of 800 kg.

After the simple contact with Hillton in the opening lap, Leclec suffered damage to the front wing of the entire race, but FIA replaced the damaged wing with an official weapon and the car remained less than the maximum.

Esteban Ocon scored his first points in his new position in fifth place, ahead of Mercedes Kimi Antonelle and Williams Alex Alex in seventh place.

British teenager Oliver Berman accused impressive in this field in the second half of the race on an alternative strategy to demand eighth.

Aston Martin’s Lance Stroll and Williams’s Carlos Sainz were upgraded to the points after the three exclusion.

PiaSSTRI sails victory while Norris overcomes brake issues

Regardless of the phase of the hole, PiaSSTRI led every roll in the Chinese Grand Prix and showed why he was a title competitor this year.

His teammate Norris helped by pressing Russell down to the first rotation, which allowed Norris to sweep from abroad and move to second place with everyone aware of the importance of the path in Shanghai.

Norris was undermined by Russell although during the first, and only, the hole stops for the leaders, but the McLaren driver soon returned to second with a move inside to the first corner.

At some point, Nuris was advancing his five -second deficit with Pasri before he was encouraged to manage his tires, so he did not get two seconds from Australians.

At the last six rolls, Noris told the team that he was suffering from a “long pedal” because of the brake issue, so he retreated but had enough margin of Russell’s motive by 1.3 seconds.

The world champion Verstappen strengthened the maximum performance of his car again in fourth place when he appeared in sixth place.

After Hamilton decided the hole for the second time, Versabpen moved to fifth place and Leclerc caught before it was overwhelmed with an amazing movement abroad in the third floor.

Red Bull and Ferrari will be concerned about the McLaren’s pace after the completion of more than 15 seconds behind the winner of Bayshery, before the red cars were excluded, on a path that traditionally explains the best air car.

McLaren puts them in two Mercedes at the Mercedes Championship in the Suzuka Championship within two weeks, with Red Bull 42 points, and Ferrari is already 61 points.

Elsewhere, in a largely -free race, Haas Berman made an average alternative alternative strategy with some great abuses on his way to the tenth place, which became eighth.

Liam Lawson from Red Bull showed a few pace in the twelfth place, and the rising Jack Duhan won the only penalty kick in the race to force Issak Haydagar to get out of the path on his way to the thirteenth place.

Tsunouda’s Eukri Tsunuda was set to score points, but the Racing Bull strategy that puts them in the package and was unable to return across the field.

Fernando Alonso of Aston Martin was the only retired because of the brake problem.
