In the cooldown room, Verstappen says he was watching Norris being held up by Russell in the middle stint - giving the defensive work of Mercedes a thumbs up.
The anthems have played, Verstappen lifts the trophy and receives his winner's medal. We've seen this one before...
But that was hard work.
Receiving his trophy, Norris moves to second in the standings for the first time in his F1 career. Disappointment, but those are the high standards he now operates at.
And with that, it's time to say goodbye for today, but we'll see you again in one week for the Austrian Grand Prix. Until then, here's the full report to recap all the action from Barcelona.
