Charles Leclerc leads at the start of the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix.

Here are the complete results from the 2024 Azerbaijan Grand Prix at the Baku City Circuit, which was won by…

McLaren’s Oscar Piastri came out on top of a thrilling race-long duel with Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc, which ended in disaster as Leclerc and Red Bull’s Sergio Perez collided on the penultimate lap.

Oscar Piastri defeats Charles Leclerc before dramatic conclusion

With Leclerc leading away from pole position, the Ferrari driver established a five-second lead over the first stint before pitting for the hard tyres.

Following the stops, Piastri came back very quickly at Leclerc and overtook the Monegasque with a daring late braking move into Turn 1.

From there, Piastri proved unable to pull away from Leclerc but weathered the pressure being thrown at him from behind as the Ferrari driver was rarely outside of DRS range of the McLaren.

With around three laps to go, Piastri managed to break away from Leclerc as the Ferrari driver came under intensifying pressure from Red Bull’s Sergio Perez and Ferrari teammate Carlos Sainz.

However, with two laps to go, a battle between Perez and Sainz ended in disaster as the pair clashed going down the straight out of Turn 2 – resulting in both spearing off and hitting the wall hard as their races came to a dramatic conclusion.

This promoted George Russell’s Mercedes to third place, with the British driver having overtaken Max Verstappen in the closing stages. Lando Norris recovered from his 16th place grid slot to finish in fourth after utilising a one-stop strategy to catch back up on his championship rival with three laps to go.

Verstappen was left a disconsolate fifth, having never appeared able to join in the battle and getting cooped up behind the one-stopping Alex Albon and Norris through the middle of the race.

Fernando Alonso finished sixth for Aston Martin, with Albon coming home seventh in his Williams.

Franco Colapinto capped off his great weekend with eighth place in the second Williams, with Lewis Hamilton quietly recovering to ninth after his pitlane start for Mercedes.

The final point went to Haas’ Oliver Bearman, on his racing debut for the American squad, having also scored points in his F1 debut in Saudi Arabia earlier this season.
