It was bittersweet for Lynn who was delighted to be on the podium, but he was frustrated to have his chances of a victory taken away from him.

Lynn said: “He ruined my chances of fighting for a win today but obviously there’s the bigger picture.

“I have to thank my team for the podium and the car was fantastic today.”
