Championship leader Norris had a dreadful day spinning and stalling to dead last a lap down, Russell now 2nd in the title race 7 points behind Norris.

Sorry to be pedantic, but Norris didn’t spin. Stalled on the grid so started over a minute down, then changed to wets just as the rain stopped so had to stop again, and then stopped a third time near the end for super softs. Still a torrid day though as his pace didn’t seem there when he was running
