What a time for Lando Norris to break out arguably his greatest weekend in his F1 career. Not once across the three days, even giving up a practice session for Pato O’Ward deterred Norris from dominating the weekend, taking pole by four tenths of a second, before leading every single lap enroute to a 30-second victory, the biggest win of the 2025 season so far.

Across the garage though, Oscar Piastri could only manage fifth in another struggling weekend for the Australian, and with it, he loses his Championship lead for the first time in 17 races. It’s a four-race shootout for the crown, with Verstappen still just about in contention, 36 points back. Who takes the title?

Dre, Cam and RJ also breakdown a manic start and climax to the race involving grass shortcuts, debated stewarding calls and a VSC with 2 laps to go that ended two high tension fights for the podium. More on Carlos Sainz’ disasterclass, a career-high P4 for Ollie Bearman for Haas, and yet another questionable moment for the rulebook as Verstappen and Hamilton clash on track again.
