Mercedes’ George Russell led from start to finish to win the sprint race at the Dutch Grand Prix.
Russell led a train of four cars for the entirety of the race but was always able to keep his pursuers at arm’s length.
Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc passed McLaren’s Lando Norris with six laps to go to take second ahead of the world champion, who fended off a late attack from Mercedes’ Kimi Antonelli.
Russell’s win cuts his deficit in the championship to Antonelli to 56 points, with Lewis Hamilton in second place.
The seven-time champion, who finished seventh behind McLaren’s Oscar Piastri and Red Bull’s Max Verstappen, is three points ahead of Russell in the championship.
