The race began with tactical maneuvers, because several drivers decided to change the tires immediately before the start. Vestappen kept leadership, but Piastra quickly showed strength and took the first place.
The incidents and security car interventions were soon followed. Collisions, penalties and variable weather conditions mixed the orders, while rain gave additional headaches to teams and strategists.
After several outpats from the security car and a series of departures in boxing, the key moment was when the Verstappen made a mistake and ended out of the trail, which cost him valuable positions. Piastra, though fast, got a sentence due to the mistake during the neutralization, which opened the door for Norris.
Norris used the opportunity to a smart strategy and precise rides and took the lead, which did not discharge until the end. The Hulkenberg defended the third place in front of Hamilton in the finish and thus came to his historical success.
