Gasly, who arrived in 7th place on the grid, which might be said to be a chance for a large number of points, maintained the starting position until the 32nd lap and advanced the race smoothly, but changed from intermediate to medium tires at an early stage of the 33rd lap.

unacceptable result
Pierre Guthrie
Final: 10th / Grid: 7th
I’m so sorry. This is an unacceptable result.
I had a great race behind Lando[Norris]and in front of the Aston Martins, but I took a big risk early on and dropped down the order.
I don’t really know why I made this decision. We have to review everything and learn from this mistake.
We definitely might have scored more points today and it’s a big blow as we had plenty of chances to move forward, especially considering the championship contention.
