Max Verstappen was on fire! The Red Bull driver took pole position and never looked back. He dominated the race from start to finish, leaving the rest of the field in the dust. Honestly, it was a textbook performance! His teammate, Sergio Perez, finished in a respectable second place, giving Red Bull a one-two finish.

Leclerc Takes Third, But It Wasn't Easy

Disappointments for Ferrari and Mercedes

While Ferrari's Leclerc got a podium, the other Scuderia car driven by Carlos Sainz Jr. didn't have a great day. Sainz Jr. had a few issues, including a spin that set him back. It wasn't the result Ferrari was hoping for. Mercedes also had a mixed bag. Lewis Hamilton's strong drive put him in contention for the podium, but unfortunately, teammate George Russell encountered some mechanical problems and had to retire early.

The Rest of the Field
