皮亚斯特里谈新加坡站爆胎:讽刺的是,这可能帮了我
皮亚斯特里认为他在新加坡大奖赛的爆胎实际上帮助他在周日的一级方程式比赛中超越了汉密尔顿,获得第五名。
奥斯卡·皮亚斯蒂关于他在新加坡的轮胎扎孔:“讽刺的是,这可能反而帮了我”
皮亚斯蒂在没有轮胎扎孔的情况下能打败汉密尔顿获得前五名吗?澳大利亚人并不确定
奥斯卡·皮亚斯蒂认为他在新加坡大奖赛的轮胎扎孔实际上帮助他在周日的F1比赛中超越了刘易斯·汉密尔顿,获得了第五名
当虚拟安全车在第39圈被叫入行动时,皮亚斯蒂孤独地排在第六位,落后第三名的汉密尔顿20秒,落后队友兰多·诺里斯7秒,此时兰斯·斯特罗尔因离合器问题被拉到一边。
尽管比任何领跑者都使用了更旧的轮胎,汉密尔顿还是决定继续使用磨损的软胎。皮亚斯蒂也是如此,他的中等轮胎比汉密尔顿年轻15圈,但一个慢漏气实际上迫使这位麦凯轮车手在第41圈进行了第二次进站。
皮亚斯蒂在软胎上重新加入比赛,落后汉密尔顿37秒,但每圈快两秒,并在倒数第三圈缩小了差距。法拉利赛车手坚定地捍卫了他的位置,但在那个44圈的比赛中,使用红色墙状复合材料的轮胎结束时无能为力。
“这绝对是我们能做的最好了,我们没有速度去做更多。显然,这里是一场巨大的位置争夺战,”皮亚斯蒂指出。
“我觉得我个人做得相当不错。显然,漏气有点遗憾,但讽刺的是,它实际上可能帮了我。我在最后追上了刘易斯,所以每件事都有一线希望。”
在完成超越之后,澳大利亚车手补充道:“这很艰难,因为一旦到达那里,轮胎很容易过热,你似乎就会陷入他们的节奏中。
“但考虑到我追得有多快,如果我没有超越,我会对自己感到失望。所以,有一点点兴奋,这是好事,因为否则这将是一场相当孤独的比赛。”
麦凯轮车队负责人安德烈亚·斯特拉说,慢漏气的具体原因尚未阐明,车队将与轮胎供应商倍耐力进行调查。
“这确实是一件相当不寻常的事情,”斯特拉评论道。 “比如,这是我今年第一次听说慢漏气。今天对奥斯卡来说损失不大,但在一场更接近的比赛中,这可能会造成显著的时间损失,所以这绝对是我们需要解决的问题。我不认为这是一个与车队相关的问题。但理想情况下,任何竞争对手都不应该遇到这种情况。”
皮亚斯特里的“相当孤独的比赛”标志着他连续13场大奖赛没有登上领奖台——这是他自2023年新秀赛季以来的最差纪录。
这位2025年冠军争夺者在他之前的57场比赛中取得了28次前三名成绩。

Oscar Piastri on his Singapore puncture: “Ironically, it probably helped”
Would Piastri have beaten Hamilton to a top-five finish without his puncture? The Australian is not so sure
Oscar Piastri believes his Singapore Grand Prix puncture actually helped him overtake Lewis Hamilton for fifth place in Sunday’s Formula 1 race.
Piastri lay a lonely sixth – 20 seconds down on third-placed Hamilton and seven seconds adrift of team-mate Lando Norris – when the virtual safety car was called into action on lap 39 at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, as Lance Stroll pulled aside due to a clutch issue.
Despite having the oldest tyres of any frontrunner by some margin, Hamilton decided to stay out on worn soft rubber. So did Piastri, whose medium tyres were 15 laps younger, but a slow puncture actually forced the McLaren driver into a second stop on lap 41.
Piastri rejoined on soft rubber, with a 37-second deficit to Hamilton, but was two seconds a lap quicker and bridged that gap by the antepenultimate lap. The Ferrari racer staunchly defended his position but was powerless at the end of that 44-lap stint with the red-walled compound.
“That was definitely the most we could have done, we didn't have the pace to do any more. Obviously, here is a massive track-position race,” Piastri pointed out.
“I feel like personally, I did a pretty good job. Obviously, the puncture was a bit of a shame, but ironically, it actually probably helped. I got Lewis at the end, so there is a silver lining to everything.”
Following up on his overtake, the Australian added: “It was tough, because also, once you get there, it doesn't take much to overheat the tyres and you kind of get stuck at their pace.
“But with how quickly I was catching, I would have been pretty disappointed in myself if I didn't get past. So, a bit of excitement, which was good, because otherwise it was a pretty lonely race.”
McLaren team principal Andrea Stella said the reason for the slow puncture was yet to be elucidated and the squad would look into it with tyre supplier Pirelli.
“It's honestly a pretty unusual event,” Stella commented. “Like, it's the first time that I hear about a slow puncture this year. It didn't cost very much to Oscar today, but in a closer race, it could have been a significant loss of time, so definitely something that we need to get on top of. I don't think that this is a team-dependent kind of issue. But ideally, it doesn't happen for any competitor.”
Piastri’s “pretty lonely race” marked his 13th consecutive grand prix without a podium finish – his worst streak since the beginning of his rookie season in 2023.
The 2025 title contender had collected 28 top-three results across his previous 57 starts.
