There are storylines to monitor up and down the entire grid, but the main question facing the sport right now concerns a pair of McLaren teammates. Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris have raced away from the field, but not each other. The two drivers are separated by just nine points as the second half of the season begins, with Piastri having the advantage at the moment, but both drivers can claim some momentum in this title race coming out of the Summer Shutdown.
For Norris, he won three of the four races ahead of the break, trimming what was a 22-point Piastri advantage following the Canadian Grand Prix to the current nine-point gap.
For Piastri, he minimized the damage during this stretch, finishing second to Norris in each of those three races won by the British driver, and taking a win for himself at the Belgian Grand Prix.
As the second half of the season begins, and these two McLaren teammates fight for a title, who do you see hoisting the biggest trophy when the season is over?
