The Moss-Ferrari farce that current F1 drivers are thankfully spared
Recent moves within the driver market have reminded MAURICE HAMILTON of a time when contracts weren’t worth the paper they weren’t written on…
Oscar Piastri could easily HAVE painted himself into a difficult corner with his recent contract woes. Imagine the scenario: he walks into the McLaren garage at the first GP of 2023 to face a greeting like this from a person in papaya:
“Er, ’scuse me. What you doin’?”
“I’m getting into my car.”
“Hang on. Who are you?”
“Oscar Piastri. I believe I’m your driver.”
“Just a minute, mate.” The papaya person fishes in his pocket and produces various scraps of paper, all headed: ‘McLaren Racing: Anything Considered’.
