The Formula One contract dispute surrounding Australian racer Oscar Piastri was heard by the governing FIA’s Contract Recognition Board (CRB) on Monday but the body may not offer an immediate ruling clarifying the 21-year-old’s future.

Alpine team chief Otmar Szafnauer on Friday accused the team's reserve driver Oscar Piastri of lacking "integrity" as a row over his future continued to dominate paddock gossip at the Belgian Grand Prix. Piastri, a 21-year-old Australian who has won the Formula Three and Two titles in successive seasons en route to a F1 career, is at the centre of a contract dispute involving Alpine as he seeks to break free. Alpine claim that Piastri, managed by compatriot and former F1 driver Mark Webber, signed a contract with them for 2023, which he has rejected as he bids to move elsewhere.
Alpine team principal Otmar Szafnauer claims he wishes Oscar Piastri «had a bit more integrity» as their dispute rumbled on. The French team had hoped to bring Piastri, their reserve driver, into their line-up for the 2023 season after Fernando Alonso unexpectedly decided to leave the team for Aston Martin after he replaced Sebastian Vettel. Ad Alpine went as far as announcing Piastri’s promotion only for the Australian to deny any agreement, as he had signed up to race for McLaren given Daniel Ricciardo’s exit.
Expected to be Alpine’s team leader next season after Fernando Alonso ditched the team, Otmar Szafnauer says Esteban Ocon’s only weakness is that he needs to get up to speed faster on grand prix weekends.
