Oscar Piastri (Source- Daily Mail)
The Formula One is turning out to be an interesting season of racing so far. After seeing the last few races, where it has been either Mercedes or Red Bull finish on the podiums, the Hungarian GP was dominated by McLaren. This was a moment where the team finally finished on top in the last race and made sure they dominated it throughout.
The winner of the Hungarian Grand Prix was the young and talented Australian driver Oscar Piastri, who is one of the young prodigies of McLaren. The 23-year-old made sure he kept the lead and also made sure he gave a great fight with his teammate and McLaren's number one driver Lando Norris. Piastri won his first race in F1 history and this was one of his greatest moments in racing so far. It was a great performance from the young Aussie and we are sure many more races are coming his way.
5-Pound note fan acknowledged
We all have heard of the video where an Indian fan had given Piastri a 5-pound note saying that he would win the next race. This was just before the Hungarian GP and it is safe to say that all his best wishes have finally come true and Piastri went on to finish on the top podium. Recently, McLaren also released a video with Piastri relaxing in his bathtub and acknowledging the fan who gave him the 5-pound note. This was a great gesture from the young racer who has shown appreciation for his fans who wished him well just before his triumphant race.

The gesture will surely be remembered by the fan who had given him that note and had given him the confidence to give one of his best performances that saw him win the first race of his career. This is a moment both of them will never forget and we all will be wishing that we see more great races for Oscar in the future as well.
