Think they'll be ahead before the summer break?

Seeing as Piastri was very hyped through his junior years and is looking like the real deal this season already I think the only clear winner of the ordeal is McLaren.

Possibly though it depends on the season overall. Like, McL are looking good this weekend but have had a poor season so far for them compared to last year. Time will tell, I suppose.

Yeah but that isn't really on Piastri. They look like they came out of the ordeal with a really high-caliber young talent tied to them which is a big win for them, and a massive upgrade compared to how Danny Ric was performing for them. Norris is extremely highly regarded and Piastri had been impressively close for a rookie.

You know, you have convinced me, I agree that McLaren came out the better.
