Font size

Without a victory since the start of the season, Max Verstappen scored his first success of the season at Sepang, after an eventful Bahrain Grand Prix in Malaysia this Sunday.

Starting from pole position, the Dutchman missed his start before falling behind and then resisting the Mercedes of Kimi Antonelli, who consolidated his position as leader of the world championship with the retirement of his partner George Russell.

Third with four seconds to go, Isack Hadjar did not achieve a second podium in a row, swallowed up in the final by the Ferraris of Lewis Hamilton (3rd) and Charles Leclerc (4th).
