It fell to Piastri to launch a challenge and over the opening 14 laps he made several attempts to pass the reigning World Champion, eventually prevailing as Verstappen ran deep at Turn 1 after a robust defence.
Norris also made his way through after several of his own attempts, and with the forecasted rain not materialising, Piastri managed the gap to claim a hat-trick of wins on the bounce, extending his points lead over Norris to 16.
Mercedes' George Russell, meanwhile, beat Verstappen to the final step of the podium after benefitting from a mid-race Virtual Safety Car.
