George Russell has reduced the points deficit to team-mate Kimi Antonelli to 56 points following a commanding victory in the Dutch GP Sprint.
Russell entered the Zandvoort event 59 points behind the sister Mercedes, but a lights-to-flag run to victory in the Netherlands brought Russell the full offer of eight points - his third Sprint win of the season, after China and Canada.
Antonelli finished in fourth place, earning five points, thus meaning Russell took three points out of the Italian.
Lewis Hamilton remains second in the standings but is now 53 points behind Antonelli, following an anonymous seventh-place finish.
