In an impressive Grand Prix, the Max Verstappen celebrated his 8th win of the year, taking advantage of her excellent strategy Red Bull! On the other hand, Ferrari she had another nightmare race, with bad choices lining the podium, despite the fact that her two cars started from 2nd and 3rd (Saint 4th, Lacler 6th). Another good performance from both Mercedeswith Hamilton finishing 2nd (also taking fastest lap) and Russell 3rd.
THE Russell remained in first place and ahead of the two Ferraris after the start, while the Red Bull they made an impressive start, with Verstappen and Perez winning two places each, while entering the 9th lap they were in 6th and 7th place respectively!
When the pit stops started Ferrari chose to keep him in the fight Leclerc, who changed tires on lap 21, pulling ahead of Saint’s team-mate and behind leader Russell. The Monegasque then picked up the pace and put a lot of pressure on Russell, eventually passing him on lap 31. At the same time, Verstappen was gnawing away at his gap from 3rd Saint.
On the 40th lap, Ferrari chose to put the hard rubber on Leclerc, a strategy that ultimately proved disastrous for the “reds”. Leclerc was uncompetitive after this change and Verstappen passed him easily, before the Dutchman spun, giving Leclerc the lead again.
However, the Verstappen he returned to first place on lap 45, never looking back. Leclerc was unable to hold on to second place even against Russell, with the Briton passing him for 2nd, while Ferrari pitted Leclerc again, putting him on the soft tyre.
The Monegasque returned to the track being 6th and having effectively lost hopes of victory, while Hamilton he steadily picked up the pace, closing the gap on 3rd Saint. Eventually, the Brit managed to pass Saint, ending a bad day for the Ferrari team, while just before the finale he also overcame his barrier Russell, finishing 2nd! Russell completed his effort in 3rd place, while the first ten were completed by Saint, Perez, Leclerc, Norris, Alonso, Ocon and Vettel!
