Piastri wants to assist team-mate's title bid

- DANIEL MOXON

OSCAR PIASTRI is ready to back Lando Norris' title challenge despite his win last weekend.

The Aussie driver moved to within 32 points of his McLaren team-mate with his victory in Baku.

But the team plans to 'bias' their strategies towards the Brit as he is closest to Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who is 59 points clear at the top of the drivers' standings.

Piastri insists he is okay with that and that his second victory of the season hasn't changed his stance.
