The temperature rose in Junior, probably influenced by the incisive and dramatic behaviour of their elders. Esteban Ocon benefited from his start on the front row handed to him by the reverse grid for race 2, with Paolo Besancenez at his side, pushing and shoving until the last. Anthoine Hubert slipped into the wake of Ocon to take second place. After a good start with great cunning, Dorian Boccolacci started the on last row in 5th place at the first corner and went round the first corner in 3rd position.
Behind the battle raged, punctuated by several skirmishes. Besancenez paid the price, Leclerc was only 9th at the finish. Then there was the duel between Lance Stroll and George Russell for fourth place that monolised attention at the end of the race, but the experienced British driver knew how to control his young Canadian opponent even though he was faster. Third in race 2, Dorian Boccolacci should logically be on pole position at the start of the final.
