Ferrari had looked set to dominate at the Sochi Autodrom before a controversial stand-off between the team and its two drivers Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc. Ultimately, the result was swung by Vettel's DNF triggered by a MGU-K unit failure which caused a Virtual Safety Car period and allowed both Mercedes drivers to pit and retain leading positions.

Leclerc completed the podium ahead of Red Bull duo Max Verstappen and Alexander Albon, the latter charging from the pit lane to fifth place, with Carlos Sainz once again heading up the midfield fight for McLaren.

With Sergio Perez banking solid points for Racing Point in seventh place, Lando Norris also missed out in the Safety Car periods to drop to eighth place but gained a place ahead of Kevin Magnussen who was hit by a five-second time penalty for going off track.

Nico Hulkenberg claimed the final points place for Renault with teammate Daniel Ricciardo retiring with damage following his first-lap clash with Romain Grosjean and Antonio Giovinazzi - with the French driver also eliminated by the collision.

Lance Stroll just missed out on points in 11th place for Racing Point ahead of Toro Roso's Daniil Kvyat and Alfa Romeo's Kimi Raikkonen.

Pierre Gasly endured a low-key race in 14th place in front of final finisher Giovinazzi. Williams suffered a double DNF with Robert Kubica and George Russell.
