Max Verstappen was relatively unchallenged on the way to victory in the sweltering heat at the French Grand Prix after title rival and pole-sitter Charles Leclerc crashed while leading the race.
The Monegasque threw away what looked likely to be another race win when he lost grip in his rear tyres and span into a tyre wall. It left Verstappen to coast to the win with Lewis Hamilton unable to catch, though the Brit recorded his best result of the season by finishing second.
Carlos Sainz perhaps should have taken the third spot on the podium after making his way from the back of the grid. However, Ferrari made the baffling call to pit him with 10 laps to go and left George Russell and Sergio Perez to fight for third.
