The Frenchman was third at the finish, but slipped to seventh place after being penalized with a double time penalty for driving too fast in the pits.

Alpine requested a reconsideration and, based on new evidence that the pit-lane speedometer was not working properly, the time penalties were removed and Gasly regained his first podium finish of the season.

Correction: An earlier version of this text contained an incorrect description of Pierre Gasly's podium finish.
