Punta del Este

1 Vergne

2 di Grassi

3 Bird

Vergne brilliantly resists di Grassi from lights to flag after the Audi driver loses pole and is demoted along with three others for clipping a bollard in qualifying. Bird shoots up the order from ninth to take a fine third, with Rosenqvist doing likewise from

12th to take fifth. A seatbelt problem costs Abt.
