MAX VERSTAPPEN WINS
19.2s ahead of Norris, with Piastri third. Leclerc, Russell, Hamilton, Albon, Bortoleto, Antonelli and Hadjar make up the top 10.
Great work by Hadjar there. Bearman’s 10s penalty for ‘causing a collision’ makes no difference to his P12 because he’s far enough ahead of Yuki Tsunoda, who finishes 12 places behind his Red Bull team-mate.
“I think we did the right thing,” Piastri’s engineer tells him. Oscar does not sound energised in response. Perhaps the opening gambit should have been “You’re right! It should have been Ray Winstone instead of Pierce Brosnan!”
