Oscar Piastri goes for a late push, eyeing a move on Norris, but it doesn’t stick. A lock-up on the front tyres ruins his run, handing Lando Norris a breather just when it was getting tense. That moment might have just saved the race for the McLaren leader.

The gap’s tumbling, down to 4.7 seconds now, and all the numbers point to a late showdown. Oscar Piastri is closing fast on Lando Norris, lapping nearly eight tenths quicker last time around. With tyres 15 laps fresher, Piastri could be right on his team-mate’s tail before we hit the chequered flag. But catching is one thing, passing is another.

More penalty drama brewing, both Saubers are now under investigation for false starts. Nico Hulkenberg joins team-mate Enzo Bortoleto in the stewards’ naughty book.
Meanwhile, Isack Hadjar radios in some distress, saying he’s in “quite a bit of pain” after his car kicked up gravel in that hectic midfield brawl off the line. A physical start to the race, and not just for the tyres.
