Not much later, Sergio Perez followed his teammate's example. The Mexican passed Sainz to take second place. The Ferrari driver was visited by George Russell in the closing stages of the race, but he managed to secure third place.

Russell is keeping up the Mercedes honour in the Ardennes after Lewis Hamilton crashed out in the opening stages. Charles Leclerc finished fifth ahead of both Alpine drivers, but a time penalty put him between Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon.
