Oscar Piastri: Hit the ground running | FP2 Interview Italian GP 2025

There was maybe a little bit of confusion and sort of 30 seconds in it. What have you been able to tell the stewards? Yeah, I think we just misjudged the... Got confused with the message in the timing system and went a little bit early, but not concerned. The precedent for this was set in qualifying, so the fact that it was a practice session, you're hopeful that that means that there'll be no further action on it? Yeah, I mean, it might be a warning or something, but I'd be surprised if it's a sporting penalty. You were reporting a hot seat again. What was going on in the car? We're just a little bit warm. It kind of always is here. So many straights, you're close to the ground for a long time, so it's nothing too unusual. I haven't really had it too much this season, but yeah, a little bit warm or warmer than I would have liked, but nothing major. We've seen you build over a course of a race weekend. I know P4 today, but are you feeling confident that the lessons you learn in other race weekends that help you build towards qualifying in the race will happen here again? Yeah, I mean, today's been a good day, obviously. Not doing FP1. I had a bit of catching up to do in FP2, but I feel like I hit the ground running and the car felt pretty good. Just got the setup maybe a little bit wrong on the soft and the second lap was pretty decent, considering it was the second lap on the tyre. No, I'm feeling pretty good. And yeah, just need to tweak a little bit more tomorrow and find a little bit more pace like usual. Just finally, it looked really close at the top. Are you surprised how close it was at the end of that? A little bit, yes. I think it was also who was in the mix was a bit of a surprise. So the Williams have looked strong in both sessions now, so let's see if they're still there tomorrow. But yeah, I think it's going to be a close weekend. Yeah, definitely will be a close weekend between Oskar Piastri and the Ferraris. But at the end of the day, if you think like Oskar Piastri wasn't the practice one, they replaced him with a reserve driver at the FP1. You know, I think it's a normal thing to see things like this in a Formula One. And of course, the practice two, he was the fourth place, but I think it doesn't matter for the Oskar. Piastri has a 36 point at the championship. And of course, I believe that tomorrow at the practice three, he will find his pace with this car. And I'm pretty sure that we'll see very good performance at the qualifying tomorrow. Just feel free to leave a comment and subscribe to the channel.
