Oscar Piastri has his first lead in the Formula 1 world championship. Piastri took advantage of Max Verstappen’s five-second time penalty at the first corner of the race to take the lead during the race’s only green-flag pit stop cycle and win Sunday’s Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.

Oscar Piastri may have won three out of the opening five races in 2025, but the Australian driver issued a blunt warning to his own team.
