There were more changes shortly afterwards, as Tsunoda, and finally Hamilton, overtook Magnussen, who was hit with further penalties for the above clash and track limit infringements, resulting in a head-to-head showdown between the right-back machines and Mercedes for the final point to the grid.

Pierre Gasly therefore finished ninth in his Alpine car, behind Sargent, Zhu Guanyu and Russell in the other Mercedes, Albon, Bottas and Ocon, with Hamilton finishing 16th ahead of the late Alonso and the heavily penalized Magnussen.
