Pre-Race Spin and Crash
Piastri crashed proceeding to the grid and finished 21st in the Australian Grand Prix Formula 1 race at the Albert Park Circuit on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
It was a shocking conclusion to Piastri's grand prix. As the teams were making the warm up lap to assemble the grid, the McLaren star would clip the curb in turn 4 and spin into the barriers. The car would be damaged beyond repair prior to the start of the race and Piastri would be retired prior to the lights out. He'll look to rebound next round out in China.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Australian rookie Piastri has quite the shoes to fill in his first season with Formula One, taking former McLaren driver Daniel Ricciardo's spot as Lando Norris' teammate for the 2023 campaign. Piastri was quite the phenom in his last season with Formula 2 in 2021, winning a total of six times, earning 252 points, and walking away with the Driver's Championship after just 23 starts in the series. The driver of the No. 81 will have a lot of eyes on his on-track performance this year, as McLaren is famous for their incoming drivers having issues sufficiently adapting to the feeling and handling of the car. In the upcoming season, Piastri's greatest challenge will be learning how to adjust his racing style to fit the capabilities of the MCL36 and where he fits amongst all the new talent on the grid this season.
