Max Verstappen reignited his title bid with a dominant victory at the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix, as a late crash for Charles Leclerc in Imola saw the Ferrari driver's world championship lead reduced.
Verstappen produced a faultless display from pole position on a drying track to complete a much-needed perfect weekend after winning the Sprint, and led a Red Bull one-two from team-mate Sergio Perez.
Leclerc, who dropped from second to fourth at the start, hit a barrier as he attempted to chase Perez with 10 laps remaining, eventually finishing sixth after being forced to pit for a new front wing.
Ferrari's passionate fans arrived on a bright morning in Imola hoping Leclerc could add to his two victories in the opening three races of the season, but the downpour that preceded the start of the race turned out to be foreboding.
With the entire grid starting on intermediate tyres, Leclerc was overtaken by Perez and Norris off the line. Sainz, who started fourth after a strong recovery drive in the Sprint having crashed out of qualifying on Friday, collided with Ricciardo at Turn 2 and was left beached in the gravel as a Safety Car was deployed.

Anthony Davidson looks at why Lewis Hamilton struggled at the Emilia Romagna GP
It was a hugely contrasting day for the Mercedes drivers, as Russell produced perhaps his best display in his first season with the team to gain seven places for a fourth-placed finish.
The majority of his work was done on the opening lap, as he jumped five positions, but he also produced one of the passes of the race as he produced a rare overtake at Variante Alta on Magnussen.
That pass was even more impressive when compared to Hamilton's experience. The seven-time world champion gained three early positions himself but was unable to improve from there, and in fact went backwards.
Max Verstappen dominates in Imola to claim his second victory of the season and reduce Charles Leclerc's championship lead. Leclerc suffers a late crash after passing Sergio Perez, while Lando Norris scores a surprise podium for McLaren.
