Just days prior to his Wimbledon outing, Piastri achieved a career-best fourth-place finish in Formula 1 at the British Grand Prix.
The talented driver believed a podium finish was within reach had it not been for the safety car intervention.
Despite the missed opportunity, Piastri remains focused on his racing ambitions.
Regarding his private life, Piastri prefers to keep it out of the public eye. However, he revealed some details during an interview with 9 News.
“We keep it private. We have been together for – I better get this right – about four and a half years now,” Piastri shared while attending one of the four tennis Grand Slam events.
Piastri’s time in the United Kingdom has been eventful, extending beyond his Formula 1 commitments.
He recently paid a visit to Lord’s Cricket Ground, where he had the opportunity to meet the Australian Cricket Team and participate in a net session with star bowlers Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon.
At just 22 years old, Piastri has shown maturity and composure as he navigates the world of Formula 1.

The team is set to introduce new parts to the MCL35M for the Hungarian Grand Prix, following significant improvements in Austria and Great Britain.
