Oscar Piastri won a thrilling race in Baku to bag his second career Grand Prix victory in Azerbaijan, finishing ahead of pole-sitter Charles Leclerc and George Russell.
Piastri pulled off his second audacious overtake in two races, this time a late lunge catching Leclerc by surprise. He then had to deliver a defensive masterclass to deny the Ferrari man, before plenty of late drama.
Sergio Perez and Carlos Sainz collided on the penultimate lap to ensure the race finished under VSC conditions as Lando Norris was promoted to fourth, a brilliant recovery drive for the Brit after starting 15th on the grid.
