McLaren has extended rookie Oscar Piastri’s contract through to the end of 2026.
The deal will keep Piastri and Lando Norris together as teammates for at least two more years, with the latter’s contract running until 2025.
Piastri has impressed in his first F1 season so far, scoring 42 points and finishing second in the sprint race at the Belgian Grand Prix.
The Australian, considered one of the brightest young talents in racing, joined McLaren after a lengthy legal battle between the British team and Alpine, who had initially had him to their driver academy.
Piastri won both the Formula 3 and Formula 2 championships before stepping up to F1.
His first McLaren deal was multi-year, believed to be until the end of 2024, and McLaren has ensured his long-term future will be with the team.
With KL Rahul set to keep in the upcoming Boxing Day Test for India, his first full wicketkeeping assignment in the national side, coach Rahul Dravid put his weight behind the player saying it will be a new and exciting challenge. “It’s an exciting challenge and it’s an opportunity for him to certainly do something different. Obviously with Ishan (Kishan) not being available, the opportunity came up. We have a couple of keepers we can choose from. Rahul is certainly one. We have had this discussion with him and he’s very confident. He’s very keen on giving it a go,” Dravid said in a press conference on Sunday. “We do understand that it’s not probably something he has done as often. He’s been doing it regularly in 50-over cricket. So, that’s certainly tough to play 50 overs and then bat the full day. That can take a lot out of your body. He has prepared well. Over the last 5-6 months he has done a lot of keeping, even though it’s in the white ball format. But this will be a new an...
Australia Test captain Pat Cummins will rush home from India mid-Test series due to a” serious family illness”, Cricket Australia has said in a statement. Cummins has taken three wickets this series at an average of 39.66. India won the Delhi Test by six wickets inside three days on Sunday. The hosts had won the first test in Nagpur by innings and 132 runs, also within three days. “I thought 260 was a decent score in the first innings. India batted well, even with just one or two partnerships. We were ahead of the game and slipped. So that’s disappointing for us. We need a review on what could have been done differently,” said Cummins, after the loss. “Pat Cummins has flown home for personal reasons due to a serious family illness,” the Cricket Australia statement confirmed. “He will return to India later this week to rejoin preparations for the third Test in Indore. We ask the media to respect his privacy,” read the statement. Given the second Test ended on Day 3,...
Second seed Tommy Paul takes on unseeded Frenchman Gregoire Barrere as a place in the Eastbourne final beckons. World No. 17 Paul faced a tough outing against compatriot J.J. Wolf in an all-American quarterfinal. In a hard-fought clash featuring six breaks of serve, Paul took the first set for the loss of four games before Wolf reversed the scoreline in the second. An entertaining third set went the distance, where Paul burst into a 5-0 lead, which would prove decisive as he won his third quarterfinal of the season. An ecstatic Paul, who improved to 21-13 on the season, said after the win: “It was a tricky one. A lot of breaks back. In the third, I thought I played a really good tie-break in the end. I thought the level throughout the whole match was good, and I’m happy to get through.” Meanwhile, the 57th-ranked Barrere saw off eighth seed Miomir Kecmanovic in straight sets in a contest that was anything but straight-forward for the Frenchman. The 29-y...
