The Japanese driver will move into a test and reserve role in 2026, making way for Franco-Algerian Isack Hadjar to slot into the hot seat from sister team Racing Bulls.

While the challenge was friendly amongst the duo, it also showcased the raw talent that Keelan has performing against his father. Without a doubt, he has inherited the 49-year-old veteran's racing techniques; moreover, he also learns from his decades of experience on the track. Still, the duo did not let go of their goofy side. "I'm pretty sure he cheated," Kevin Harvick said, as Keelan received the trophy. "He's just jealous," Keelan's reply sent them into splits.

As for Piastri, he genuinely doesn't know what he will do until he's in that moment. Having edged ahead of Norris at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, round five of the championship, Piastri now finds himself trailing his teammate, having lost the lead at the fifth-last race in Mexico. Falling a point behind Norris, that deficit grew to 24 points in Sao Paulo before the Australian clawed back a few points in Qatar.
