Formula 2 Championship leader Oscar Piastri says he has found it difficult not to be in the frame for a 2022 F1 seat given his form.

The 20-year-old Australian is tipped to end up as a Formula 1 driver one day, but the driver market has not opened up in such a way as to put him in a place to gain a drive for 2022.

Mark Webber, who manages his young countryman, admitted Piastri’s next move is causing a “headache” due to the lack of options in front of him, which would be heightened if he wins this season’s F2 title.
