That is all for ABC Sport's live digital coverage of the F1 Japanese Grand Prix. 

Oscar Piastri was brilliant today. He had a real chance of victory, if not for that ill-timed safety car. 

But second place is a mighty effort. 

Kimi Antonelli proved his win in China was no fluke. He was quickest all weekend in Japan and took his second win of the season.

F1 is now on a five-week break, with Bahrain and Saudi Arabia cancelled. 

So join us early in the morning on Monday, March 4, for the Miami Grand Prix.

Oscar Piastri has just spoken in the media pen.

The Australian said he is "very happy" with P2.

His chance of victory was dented by the ill-timed safety car. But Piastri believes Antonelli would have been hard to beat, even without it. 

It should be remembered that Antonelli was very quick prior to the safety car and was catching Russell quickly. 

I think we executed everything we could have today.

To be honest with you, even without the safety car I think it was going to be hard to beat Kimi.

It has been a tough start to the year, and to come out with a P2 and feeling like had a chance of a win — it's pretty special.

Kimi Antonelli was able to celebrate his win in China with champagne.

Unfortunately, he cannot in Japan — he is too young. 

The legal drinking age in Japan is 20 — Kimi is 19.

Charles Leclerc drove a great race to finish third.

He was unlucky with the safety car. He fell behind his teammate, Lewis Hamilton, but was able to make up positions to claim the podium.

With the safety car we got unlucky, so I was on the back foot, and I just had to bring the tyres to the end, but the feeling was not that bad. 

It was a fun race, just not enough [time] to get Oscar.

Oscar Piastri was brilliant today.

He was controlling the race for 18 laps in the lead, and he was the leading driver of those who had pitted when the safety car came on lap 22. 

Kimi Antonelli was able to make his stop and emerge on track with the lead, which he would not relinquish.

Would have been really interesting to see what would have happened without [the safety car]. A shame to not see what would have happened.

But a massive thanks to the team, we did a good job executing with what we have.

Kimi Antonelli was the pole sitter, but the young Italian had a terrible start and dropped to sixth on the first lap. 

He can consider himself fortunate today; he was the leader when the safety car came out, and he was able to pit and retain the lead. 

A terrible start, I need to check what happened but the safety car helped. A good second stint, I felt good with the car.

I have a few weeks, so I can practice some clutch drops as it has been a weakness this year.

We were lucky with the safety car, but on the hard [tyre] the pace was incredible. Definitely made my life a lot easier.

Kimi Antonelli is the first driver to win two grands prix as a teenager.

He is also the F1 championship leader, the youngest to ever achieve that.

He is speaking now after this win in Japan. 

It feels pretty good. It is still early to think about the championship, but we are in a good way. 

Oscar Piastri has finished second at Suzuka. 

It is a terrific result, considering the Australian did not start the opening two grands prix of the season. 

And the Australian's dry sense of humour has come out again on his team radio.

Wow. Turns out, when we start these things, we're pretty good. 

Well done, everybody. That was a great weekend.

Kimi Antonelli has won the Japanese Grand Prix. 

Oscar Piastri is second, 13.7 seconds behind. 

Charles Leclerc holds on for third, just pipping George Russell. 

Lando Norris is fifth, and Lewis Hamilton is sixth. 

Pierre Gasly beats Max Verstappen for seventh and eighth. 

Liam Lawson is ninth, and Esteban Ocon is 10th.
