As Oscar Piastri scents the chance to add to the Australian laurels at the most storied F1 race of them all, the Monaco Grand Prix, his world title aspirations have been given a glowing recommendation from the great Lewis Hamilton.
Seven-time title winner Hamilton, who's been having a fairly tough baptism at Ferrari, revealed on Thursday how impressed he's been with championship leader Piastri's calm, collected early-season charge.
But recognising the "unimaginable pressure" he must be under in the McLaren hot seat, Hamilton said of Piastri: "He has been doing everything you need to do to win a world championship. I don't have any advice for him. Just to keep doing what he's doing."
