McLaren Racing are bracing for arch-rivals Red Bull to come after Oscar Piastri next year even though the 25-year-old already has a long-term contract.
Red Bull could be without Max Verstappen if he departs at the end of next season, and McLaren believe the Australian would be top of the pile to replace the four-time champion if he leaves, reported Autosport.
That a team would have interest in Piastri, who is in his fourth F1 season, comes as no surprise to McLaren Racing CEO Zak Brown.
