Max Verstappen scored Red Bull's first victory in the post-Christian Horner era with victory in the Belgian Grand Prix Sprint race.
From second on the grid, Verstappen used his low-downforce rear-wing setting to slipstream past Piastri on the opening lap, swooping around the outside of the pole-sitter at Les Combes.
Despite remaining within DRS for the entire 15-lap race, Piastri did not get close enough to attempt a move, his best effort coming on Lap 11 after Verstappen had made a mistake at the Bus-Stop chicane on Lap 10.
Lando Norris was third for McLaren, once he got past the fast-starting Charles Leclerc. Lewis Hamilton was 15th for Ferrari.
