BULLDOGGER47 converted D2 pole into victory in Jeddah and advanced to 139 championship points.
Kaтю́shа Snowstorm moved from P3 to second for Haas. Xaqxfr slipped from the front row to third in the second Ferrari.
The leader controls the front
The two cars behind exchanged positions, but neither disturbed the pole-sitter. BULLDOGGER47 retained first while Ferrari kept two cars in the top three.
Xaqxfr is the nearest listed D2 rival on 94 points. The resulting 45-point gap is one and a half standard 30-point victories.
A podium does not stop the gap growing
Xaqxfr reached the podium and still lost ground to the championship leader because the other Ferrari took the maximum finishing position. The team result and drivers' contest pull in different directions.
Jeddah leaves D2 with a simple imbalance: Ferrari occupies two podium places, yet one of its drivers owns all 45 points of the championship cushion.
