Hamilton currently holds the record for most points scored in a rookie sea🌼son - 109 - in 2007.

Piastri is currently on 83 poin♑ts with five rounds remaining༺.

So in the next five races (and two sprint events🐷), Piastri has to score just 27 points to break Hamilton’s record.

Hamilton’s 109-point tally saw h⛎im miss out on the 2007 title by just one-point to Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen.

Since then, no rookie has got close, with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Alex Albon scoring 92 points in 2019.

Granted, with more races (including sprint events) and a revised points system, Hamilton’s record was always likely going to be beaten at♌ some point.

If Hamilton’s 2007 tally is converted into the modern day points system, he’d have scored 267 points (265+2 ꧋for the fastest lap).

Given McLaren’s form in recent rounds, Piastri shou🎶ld have no problem beating it.
