168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Oscar Piastri felt that McLaren would have lost out more in the F1 constructors’ chamꦅ𓄧pionship to Ferrari at the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Ferrari were only able to f🍌inish thiꦡrd and fourth amid Mercedes’ surprise return to form in Sin City.

Mercedes took a dominant 1-2 finish with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:George Russell controlling the race from pole position.

Teammate Lewis Hamilton finished second after slicing throughꦇ tওhe field from 10th on the grid.

McLaren endured a tough weekend, finishing sixth and seventh with 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Lando Norris and Piastri.

With two rounds to go, McLaren’s lead in the constr🦩uctors’ is 24 points.

Speaking after the r꧋ace, Piastri admitted Ferrari’s gain in the championship “could have been♌ worse”.

“It’s of course not ideal that they’ve gained some point𓂃s on us b💝ut I think we expected it could have been worse.

“Let’s see🥂 – it’s obviously going to be tight to the rest of the year but hopefully Qatar’s a good weekend for us.”

For Piastri, it was a tough weekend.

He was out-pꦚaced comprehensively by Norris in the race, although his chances of a better result were thwarted by a five-second penalty for a false start. 

“I didn’t think I was that far forward but clearly I must have been. I don’t think it changed m♛uch,” he added.

“Yes, it made the early part and the middle part of the race a bit more difficult, but I don’t think it affected the resu♛lt. We just weren’t quick enough, so some things to look at for sure.”
