Piastri passes Norris at the start of F1's mixed weather Belgian GP to regain the momentum in 2025's intra-team battle for the world title

Oscar Piastri cruised to his sixth victory of the 2025 Formula One season in the Belgian Grand Prix at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps on Sunday.

Oscar Piastri delivered a decisive win at the Belgian Grand Prix, pulling off a brave early overtake on team mate Lando Norris in damp conditions and managing his tyres under pressure to secure his fourth win of the season. The result puts the McLaren driver firmly back in control of the Championship, with a 16-point lead over Norris.

With Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri on the front row in Spa, team boss Andrea Stella says he will tell his drivers “lap 1 is just lap 1 of 44”

Lando Norris, who started from the pole, finished second after he was overtaken by Piastri on the fifth lap. The race began under the safety car until the fourth lap.

Few names in Formula One history are as evocative as Ayrton Senna, who won three championships in inimitable style with a combination of McLaren chassis and Honda V10 engines that was nearly unbeatable. Well-heeled F1 fans will soon have an opportunity to own a significant piece of that history.

Helmut Marko is remaining optimistic there's still a chance for Max Verstappen to win the 2025 F1 world title, but his driver doesn't agree

Oscar Piastri convincingly secured pole position for the sprint race in Belgium, leaving Max Verstappen with no real answer. According to Olav Mol, McLaren’s performance gain may be down to them adopting a clever tactic previously used by Red Bull Racing.
