Norris was trying to take the lead from Verstappen with just seven laps remaining. The incident left Norris' car unable to continue, and Verstappen was given a 10-second time penalty.
Verstappen and Norris had been caught up in a fight for top spot, with the British driver accusing his rival of "dangerous" driving.

Verstappen and Norris limped back to the pits with the former able to continue after stopping for repairs. However, Norris was forced to retire.
The remarkable flashpoint provided Russell, who was sitting in third place, 15 seconds back, to assume the lead. And the British driver was able to take advantage to win for the first time since the Brazilian GP in November 2022.
