It was Oscar Piastri who led this dominant McLaren performance at Belgian circuit Spa-Francorchamps, where heavy rain delayed the race start by more than an hour and drivers lapped behind the safety car to dry the track.
Piastri overtook his team-mate and polesitter Lando Norris through Eau Rouge almost as soon as the race got underway and the Australian driver was nearly 10 seconds ahead of his British team-mate after the first pitstops that took place in dry conditions.
Norris gained on Piastri later in the race but lost out by more than three seconds, while Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc was 20 seconds back in third place.

Saturday’s sprint race winner Max Verstappen finished fourth for Red Bull, ahead of Mercedes’s George Russell and Williams’s Alex Albon.
Lewis Hamilton took seventh despite a pitlane start, thanks to a well-timed switch from intermediate tyres to slicks when the track was dry.
Liam Lawson finished eighth for Racing Bulls and Sauber’s Gabriel Bortoleto continued a strong run for the team in ninth place.
The final point went to Alpine’s Pierre Gasly as Haas’s Ollie Bearman and the other Sauber of Nico Hulkenberg missed out in 11th and 12th, respectively.
Yuki Tsunoda’s strong qualifying performance faded to 13th; he lost two positions late on with heavy tyre degradation.
Neither Aston Martin driver scored points on a day where all 20 drivers were classified as finishers.
