Oscar Piastri is currently leading the F1 world championship, ahead of McLaren teammate Lando Norris by 9 points. 50 of those, though, have come 'courtesy' of this 'key' factor, which the Australian seeks to replicate.

Where did those 50 points come from? Namely through two wins in Spain and Belgium.

After the race in the Belgian Ardennes, at the legendary Spa-Francorchamps tracks, the 'key' behind that race win, was acknowledged by Piastri by dedicating the win to them.

After the chequered flag dropped and welcomed Piastri home to his final race win before the summer break, the McLaren driver dedicated his win to his grandfather. He later explained why.

"It's the first race outside of Australia that he's come to," Oosstri said.

Then he quickly picked up on a stat that might prove key to winning the 2925 championship.

"One of my sisters, in Spain, that was her first race outside of Australia, and that was a good weekend."

Putting two and two together, the Australian then asserted: "Now my grandfather, the same, so maybe I need to get my family members one by one for the rest of the races."

Ending on a more serious note, Piastri concluded: "It seemed like the best person to dedicate it to. It's a nice thing to do.
