McLaren's Lando Norris clinched his third race win of 2024 after successfully converting pole position

Hamilton had to coax his hard tyres around the race for 45 laps, nonetheless four short of the very early stopping Sainz as the Spaniard lost positions at the start. Fernando Alonso claimed eighth place, the first of the drivers to be a lap down, while Nico Hulkenberg spent his entire hard-tyre stint keeping Sergio Perez at bay to ensure Haas claimed a valuable two points. Franco Colapinto was just 1.7s behind Perez at the flag, having earlier run ahead of the Mexican driver.
