Oscar Piastri\u2019s mother continued her social media antics ahead of the Brazilian Grand Prix, joking about Fernando Alonso in response to a fan\u2019s tweet. The McLaren rookie swapped helmets with the two-time world champion during the triple header.<\/p>\n

Piastri took to the X social media platform to show off the latest addition to his collection, posting a picture of the pair swapping helmets with the caption \u201cHad his kart. Now I\u2019ve got his helmet.\u201d<\/p>\n

One fan responded to the young Aussie\u2019s post by writing: \u201cThe goat father and the goat son,\u201d provoking a hilarious response from Mrs Piastri. Nicole, who is already well-known for her social media posts, replied: \u201cPretty sure I would\u2019ve remembered that\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for Piastri, his start to the weekend in Brazil offered little to be amused about. The rookie failed to score points in the sprint race after struggling to move forward from his tenth-placed sprint shootout finish. His team-mate, meanwhile, came across the line in P2 behind race-winner Max Verstappen.<\/p>\n

There was, however, plenty more to celebrate for Alonso\u2019s camp. The experienced Spaniard qualified on the second row of the grid alongside under-fire team-mate Lance Stroll. More crucially, Aston Martin\u2019s pace looked to have taken a step forward after a difficult run of results.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the performance of the Silverstone-based team, Alonso explained: \u201cIt was hard because the triple race now obviously put a lot of stress on everyone. It’s difficult to analyse data, it’s difficult to go back to the factory to reunite everyone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
