McLaren's Oscar Piastri won the Qatar Grand Prix sprint race from pole position and for the third year in a row on Saturday (November 29) to trim teammate Lando Norris's Formula One championship lead to 22 points.
Mercedes's George Russell finished second, 4.951 seconds behind the Australian whose win was his first of any sort since the Dutch Grand Prix at the end of August, with Norris third and Red Bull's Max Verstappen fourth.
Norris now has 396 points with Piastri on 374 and Verstappen on 371 with 50 remaining to be won.
Piastri's win was his first in a sprint this season and he was never challenged or troubled from the moment the lights went out, with Russell and Norris almost touching in the race for the first corner but avoiding contact.
Verstappen complained again that the bouncing that had plagued him in qualifying was back but he still made up two places on his starting position.
