2025 Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix Race Report and Highlights: Versteppe towers for victory in exciting Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix ahead of Norris and Piatri

Several early cars also made a second time under the VSC, including Leclerc, which expressed its frustrations about timing on the radio. Piatri also made a second station and brought it back to P4, while some potential insecure publications had appeared in the pit lane in these busy few minutes.

While things seemed to work for Albon, his team -mate Sainz was in his wars when he fought with Tsunoda for P13, the couple contacted while the Spaniard pressed past. In the meantime, Hamilton seemed to be in a dynamic form after benefiting from a stopover during the VSC phase, with seven-time world champion P6 from Antonelli before climbing on P5 in front of Hadjar.

Elsewhere, Piatri had closed the gap to Albon in a duel for the last place on the podium – and the Papaya car was soon in turn 2. At the other end of the top 10, Alonso had repaid after a promising appearance during qualifying on 10th place against Hulkenberg.
