Hill suggests that Piastri may regret his decision, but the young driver now has Lando Norris, one of the highest-rated drivers in Formula 1, as his yardstick for performance. McLaren has already made significant changes behind the scenes, with technical director James Key leaving the team and a new technical directorship team being appointed. Piastri will compete in his first Australian Grand Prix as a Formula 1 driver next weekend, and Hill has backed him to handle the extra scrutiny, aided by his manager Mark Webber’s advice on how to cope with racing in front of a home crowd.
