Piastri Holds Off Norris to Win Belgium and Extend Lead

  • Oscar Piastri won the rain-delayed 2025 Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps, extending his lead in the Drivers' Championship.
  • The race commenced following an 80-minute hold-up caused by intense rainfall, starting behind a safety car with all drivers equipped with intermediate tires.
  • Piastri swept past teammate Lando Norris on lap one and controlled the race while Norris finished second 3.4 seconds behind and Charles Leclerc came third.
  • Piastri secured his sixth win of the season, increasing his championship advantage to 16 points after 13 of 24 races, and said, "That was lively."
  • The win marked McLaren's 10th victory this season and suggests Piastri holds strong momentum heading into the final pre-summer break race in Hungary.
