Sergio Perez, starting in second, quickly fell victim to Hamilton's prowess as the British driver manoeuvred past him through the challenging Eau Rouge and down the Kemmel Straight, setting the tone for what was to come.

By the third lap, Hamilton's relentless pursuit of the lead bore fruit.

The ease with which Hamilton overtook Leclerc was a testament to both his skill and the performance of his Mercedes.

Piastri, George Russell, and Carlos Sainz filled the next three spots, while Norris, Verstappen, Fernando Alonso, and Alexander Albon completed the top ten.
