Kimi Antonelli converted pole position into victory for Mercedes, securing his third win of the year after holding off Lando Norris. Oscar Piastri completed the podium for McLaren, with George Russell taking fourth for Mercedes.

Further down the order, late penalties altered the points finishers. Max Verstappen was given a five-second time penalty for crossing the white line on pit exit but retained fifth place. Charles Leclerc received a 20-second time penalty, dropping the Ferrari driver from sixth to eighth. That promoted Lewis Hamilton to sixth, while Franco Colapinto claimed seventh for Alpine.
