HIGHLIGHTS: Relive Verstappen's breathtaking first-lap overtake on Piastri en route to stellar Imola victory
Max Verstappen claimed his second win of the 2025 season after a sensational Lap 1 overtake on Oscar Piastri handed the reigning World Champion victory in the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix.
The Red Bull driver swept around the outside of polesitter Piastri into the first braking zone and thereafter checked out, aided by making a pit stop under a Virtual Safety Car and perfectly executing a Safety Car restart with 10 laps remaining at the Autodromo Internazionale Enzo e Dino Ferrari circuit.
Lando Norris took top honours for McLaren after passing Piastri with the help of much fresher Pirelli tyres late on, while Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc gave the Tifosi something to cheer about with fourth and sixth after a dismal Qualifying.
