皮亚斯特里困惑于与诺里斯的圈速差距
奥斯卡·皮亚斯特里坦言不解为何难以发挥迈凯伦赛车性能，而队友兰多·诺里斯凭借大幅升级的MCL40连续两站杆位夺冠。

奥斯卡·皮亚斯特里一直在苦苦思索，为什么相比队友兰多·诺里斯，自己难以充分发挥迈凯伦这套F1赛车的性能。
这位卫冕世界冠军凭借大幅升级的MCL40赛车，连续在布达佩斯和赞德沃特两场大奖赛从杆位发车并夺冠，而皮亚斯特里则遭遇了一次退赛（未完成比赛），并只获得第六名。
这让诺里斯在车手积分榜上排名第四，领先排名第七的皮亚斯特里55分，而在今年的排位赛正面交锋（包括冲刺赛）中，皮亚斯特里还以4比13落后于他的队友。
所以这位澳大利亚车手显然只能屈居第二，自五月的迈阿密站以来他就没有登上过领奖台，而他上一次获胜还是在去年八月的赞德沃特——当时他看起来像是一位即将加冕的冠军。
“很遗憾，这不是第一次出现速度跟不上的情况了，”皮亚斯特里在周日表示。“兰多赢得比赛领先优势相当大，所以我认为赛车状态不错。
“过去两个周末赛车都很快。我觉得这两条赛道很适合这辆赛车。只是不知道为什么，我一直无法把速度发挥出来。”
但不应过分惊讶于皮亚斯特里在2026年的挣扎，因为在新的规则下空气下压力水平降低，他现在不得不应对一辆抓地力更低的赛车。
这位25岁的车手在低抓地力条件下的挣扎是出了名的，比如上个赛季末，皮亚斯特里的争冠势头就在巴库、新加坡和墨西哥城等赛道崩塌了。
所以他比大多数人不得不做出更多适应，尽管仍能偶尔看到他的潜力，比如在赞德沃特领跑冲刺排位赛（SQ2）和排位赛第一节（Q1），但其他车手已经在关键时刻找到了那种优势。
“在驾驶风格方面，肯定是有一些原因的，”当被问及本赛季他与诺里斯相比欠缺在哪里时，皮亚斯特里这样说道。
“我认为这个周末的排位赛我感觉自在多了，在第一节和第二节排位赛（Q1和Q2）表现不错，当然第三节（Q3）我没有完全发挥出来，但我确实在竞争行列之中。”
这位澳大利亚车手排位赛获得第四名，落后诺里斯0.142秒，分别落后梅赛德斯车队的拉塞尔和安东内利0.040秒和0.009秒。
“但在正赛里，情况就完全不一样了，”皮亚斯特里补充道。“所以，是的，我认为这就是最大的差别。”
周日的比赛中，皮亚斯特里在第三圈的七号弯超越拉塞尔升至第三位，但由于一次耗时5.4秒的缓慢进站（停站），在第19圈又跌回第四位。
从那时起，皮亚斯特里就一直苦于速度不足，法拉利车队的勒克莱尔和汉密尔顿也先后超越了他，最终他落后诺里斯32秒完赛。
当迈凯伦领队安德烈亚·斯特拉被要求解释皮亚斯特里的困境时，这位意大利人表示：“我认为这和任何心理层面的问题没有任何关系，这纯粹是技术问题。”
“实际上这个周末我们看到奥斯卡做出了有竞争力的单圈时间，我认为在正赛中有两个因素影响了奥斯卡。”
“其一，这也是车队的责任，就是当我们进站以防守拉塞尔的时候，实际上因为一次缓慢的进站停站，我们把位置丢给了拉塞尔，这要归咎于车队。”

“那么这第二次使用硬胎的赛段，我们没能让这套轮胎进入工作状态。它们一直处于抓地力极低的状态，这种情况在第一次赛段中我们没有看到。
“所以有几件事我们需要改进。但我也想补充一点，我们现在所处的F1阶段，至少有三支车队的差距在0.1秒以内。
“只要任何环节没有做到最优，你就可能损失非常多的名次。所以如果你没有做到最优，现在你就只能排在第六位。
“从这个角度来说这是非常残酷的，所以我认为我们只需要和奥斯卡一起抓住所有机会继续努力，而我对本周末所看到的进步感到满意。”

Oscar Piastri confused by pace deficit to Lando Norris in F1 2026
Lando Norris has won the last two grands prix from pole for McLaren, whereas Oscar Piastri is struggling for pace
Oscar Piastri is scratching his head as to why he’s struggled to maximise the McLaren Formula 1 package compared to team-mate Lando Norris.
The reigning world champion has won the last two grands prix - Budapest and Zandvoort - from pole thanks to a heavily-upgraded MCL40, while Piastri has suffered a DNF and finished sixth.
It has left Norris fourth in the standings and 55 points ahead of seventh-placed Piastri, who also trails his team-mate 13-4 in their qualifying head-to-head (sprint races included) this year.
So the Australian has certainly been second best and he is without a podium since Miami in May, while his last win came at Zandvoort last August - when he looked like a champion-in-waiting.
“Unfortunately it's not the first race where the pace just hasn't been there,” said Piastri on Sunday. “Lando has just won the race [by] quite a lot, so I think the car is in a good place.
“It's been quick the last two weekends. I think these two tracks suit the car well. It's just for whatever reason, I've not been able to get the pace out of it.”
But one shouldn’t be too surprised by Piastri’s struggles in 2026, because he is now having to contend with a lower-grip car due to downforce levels reducing under the new rules.
It is in low-grip conditions where the 25-year-old notoriously struggles, as Piastri’s title bid collapsed towards the end of last season at tracks like Baku, Singapore and Mexico City.
So he’s had to adapt more than most and although there’s still been glimpses of his potential, like topping SQ2 and Q1 at Zandvoort, others have found that edge for when it matters.
“In the driving style, there clearly must be something,” said Piastri, when asked where he lacks compared to Norris this season.
“I think in qualifying this weekend I felt much more comfortable and through Q1 and Q2, okay, Q3 I didn't quite maximise it, but I was there in the fight.”
The Australian qualified fourth, 0.142s off Norris and 0.040s and 0.009s behind Mercedes duo George Russell and Kimi Antonelli, respectively.
“In the race, the story just wasn't the same at all,” added Piastri. “So, yeah, I think that's the biggest difference.”
Sunday’s race saw Piastri overtake Russell at Turn 7 for third on lap three before dropping back to fourth on lap 19 due to a slow 5.4s pitstop.
From then on Piastri just struggled for pace as Ferrari duo Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton also overtook him and he eventually finished 32 seconds behind Norris.
When McLaren boss Andrea Stella was asked to explain Piastri’s woes, the Italian said: “I don't think it has anything to do with any psychological kind of opportunity - this is purely technical.
“This weekend actually we saw Oscar expressing competitive lap times and I think in the race there were two factors that affected Oscar.
“One was the fact, and this is a team responsibility, that when we pitted to cover Russell, actually we lost the position to Russell because of a slow pitstop and this is up to the team.

“Then this second stint on hard tyres, we were not able to switch these tyres on. They stayed permanently in a regime of very, very low grip, which we didn't see in the first stint.
“So there's a couple of things that we need to work on. But I would also add to this that we are in a phase of Formula 1 in which we have at least three teams that are within one tenth of a second.
“As soon as things are not optimised, then you may have a very significant positional loss. So if you're not optimised, now you are P6.
“It's very brutal from this point of view, so I think we just have to keep working with Oscar on all the opportunities and I'm happy with the improvements that I've seen during this weekend.”
