Australian Oscar Piastri claimed victory at the Bahrain Grand Prix, leading from pole to flag and cutting Lando Norris’ Formula 1 championship lead to just three points.
George Russell finished second ahead of Norris, though Russell’s result is under investigation for a potential DRS infraction.
Kiwi Liam Lawson crossed the line in 13th but dropped to 17th after receiving two time penalties, including one for contact with Lance Stroll.
Piastri celebrated his first win at the traditionally tough Bahrain circuit, calling it a “nice” reward for the team.
