Leclerc won the start with Hamilton second and Verstappen 3rd., but by lap7 both Hamilton and Verstappen had passed Leclerc. Lap later Perez passed him also. Hamilton lost lead to both Red Bulls during pit stops.

Russell, Verstappen (crashed on the main straight while leading the race with 5 laps to go, possibly a tyre failure), Stroll (spun out at the start of the straight and hit the wall. Tyre failure?) and Ocon DNF
