;Notes
- {{note|1|1}} – Nicholas Latifi was given a three-place grid penalty for exiting the pit lane whilst the pit exit light was red.
=Feature race=
The race has been red-flagged midway-through on lap 20 after a collision between Mick Schumacher and Tatiana Calderón on Rascasse. As a result, everyone down between Calderón in ninth and Raghunathan in nineteenth was stuck behind the incident. That bizarrely meant that the entire top eight gained a lap on the rest of the field, although they would all have to serve their mandatory stop after the race restarted.
