Fernando Alonso had bad luck on the opening lap. The Spaniard was pushed by Pierre Gasly in the first corner so he had to move from fifth to 15th.

Bottas' teammate, Lewis Hamilton, was able to show his talent in this race. Starting the race from 11th place, the British racer was able to take fifth place on the 14th lap.
Approaching lap 20, Verstappen approached Bottas to take first place and shifted Hamilton's position as leader of the standings. However, Bottas also tried to go faster to secure his position.
Mercedes asked Bottas to follow Verstappen's lead to enter the pits on lap 38. After leaving the pits, Leclerc was in first place with a difference of five seconds from Bottas.
However, with fresh tires, Bottas was able to catch Leclerc and reclaim first place on lap 47. The Finn was able to pass Leclerc at the opening corner.
Leclerc is also struggling to hold his ground. After choosing to stop at the third corner, the Ferrari racer lost his podium position after being overtaken by Sergio Perez on lap 51.
These results last until the race is over. Bottas was able to become the winner, followed by the Red Bull Racing pair, namely Verstappen and Perez. Meanwhile, Leclerc and Hamilton are behind them.
