Probably the best drive of the weekend was Valtteri Bottas sneaking up the field from the very back of the grid after penalties put him there. Chaos at the start of the race meant that he couldn't capitalize and had to wait before he could start moving up the field.

As soon as everything calmed down, Bottas made a strong series of moves to put himself into the points, although to get past the Force India and Haas cars would still be a challenge.

The Finn made the best of a bad situation, which he has unfortunately had to do a fair few times this season. Eventually, he got right behind Ocon and Perez, and with two magnificent runs up through Raidillion, he beat out the Force Indias, even with Checo dragging on the chase as long as he could.
