Oscar Piastri has officially parted ways with the management team led by former Formula 1 driver Mark Webber and his wife, Ann Neal. The decision to terminate their management agreement was mutually agreed upon by Piastri and Webber, marking a significant shift in the young driver's career management. The announcement comes as Piastri continues to establish himself in the competitive world of Formula 1, where he has made a notable impact since his debut.
Mark Webber and Ann Neal began managing Piastri in 2019, a pivotal year for the Australian driver as he clinched the Formula Renault Eurocup title, narrowly defeating Victor Martins. This victory was a key moment that secured him a place in Renault's F1 academy, setting the stage for his rapid ascent in motorsport. Under their guidance, Piastri transitioned from a promising junior driver to a recognized talent in F1, where he currently races for McLaren.S2
