Racing resumed on lap five, with Boschung taking second from Crawford at Turn 2 as both Bearman and Daruvala gained places. Further back, Martins took sixth from Maini at Turn 13, with team-mate Pourchaire also passing the Campos rookie.
But the Alfa Romeo F1 reserve driver ended both his and Bearman’s races on lap seven while attempting to pass Martins down to Turn 1, outbraking himself and crashing into the side of the Prema.This prompted another safety car, taking the field through the pitlane as the stricken ART and Prema cars were recovered, with Pourchaire approaching Bearman to apologise for the incident.
The action resumed on lap 10, with Martins taking fourth from Crawford at Turn 1 as he continued his charge through the field. Daruvala made it past Boschung into second the following lap at Turn 27, with a fierce battle ensuing, the pair trading places several times before the Indian driver emerged in front.Daruvala briefly took the lead from Iwasa on lap 15 but ran wide and let the Japanese driver back through, allowing Martins to close in.
The rookie then took second three laps from the end, and despite closing in on the leader, had to settle for second but clear of Daruvala.
