Liam Lawson, Racing Bulls (P12) – 5/10
Looked lively early on before early contact damage and deployment gremlins neutered his afternoon. Without the upgraded spec fitted to his teammate's car, Lawson was fighting a losing battle against power drainage through the long Spa sectors.
Pierre Gasly, Alpine (P11) – 6/10
Gasly launched well and pushed hard, but a sluggish pit stop ruined his chances of vaulting into the points. Lost out in a chaotic three-wide scrap later on, leaving him stranded just outside the top 10 despite a solid personal effort.
