The Australian Oscar Piastri (McLaren) won this Sunday at the Belgium Grand Prix, adding his sixth victory of the season and consolidating himself as leader of the Formula 1 World Cup.
The race, played in the spa-Francorchamps circuit, was delayed by rain and had a key start: Piastri exceeded his partner Lando Norris, who had left the Pole.
Norris crossed the goal in second place and remains an escort in the general classification, consolidating McLaren's domain with a new 1-2 in the championship.
The podium was completed by Charles Leclerc (Ferrari), who endured the rhythm of Max Verstappen (Red Bull), fourth, in the last turns. The Dutch could not reach McLaren and yields more land in the fight for the title.
With this result, Piastri distanced 21 points from Norris and 82 of Verstappen, in a season that begins to bow. The next calendar event will be in Hungary, where McLaren will seek to maintain his hegemony.
