Oscar Piastri is flipping into the 2025 F1 season with more than just race wins on his plate – he’s now serving up the Oscar Piastri Burger!

Partnering with Aussie burger legends Grill’d, the McLaren charger has crafted a genuine nutritional powerhouse packed with 13 essential vitamins and minerals, low in sugar, and decked in his signature McLaren colours.

Think Wagyu beef, charcoal bun, papaya sesame seeds, and a super-charged chipotle mayo – basically, Piastri's favourite flavours between two buns.

"Both Grill’d and I were born in Melbourne and I’ve always been a long-time fan of their healthy and nutritious burgers,” says Piastri.

"The burger I’ve created with the team is not only packed with protein and low sugar but it tastes great.”

But the real test? Oscar's Mom, Nicole, gave it the ultimate taste drive.

Her verdict? "Tonight’s dinner - very tasty but definitely the messiest burger I’ve ever had," she posted on X.

Don't forget the napkins, race fans!

Phillip van Osten

Motor racing was a backdrop from the outset in Phillip van Osten's life. Born in Southern California, Phillip grew up with the sights and sounds of fast cars thanks to his father, Dick van Osten, an editor and writer for Auto Speed and Sport and Motor Trend. Phillip's passion for racing grew even more when his family moved to Europe and he became acquainted with the extraordinary world of Grand Prix racing. He was an early contributor to the monthly French F1i Magazine, often providing a historic or business perspective on Formula 1's affairs. In 2012, he co-authored along with fellow journalist Pierre Van Vliet the English-language adaptation of a limited edition book devoted to the great Belgian driver Jacky Ickx. He also authored "The American Legacy in Formula 1", a book which recounts the trials and tribulations of American drivers in Grand Prix racing. Phillip is also a commentator for Belgian broadcaster Be.TV for the US Indycar series.
