Race Notes
- Hamiltons new engine seemed to work fantastically the weekend. After he got disqualified from the Qualifying he managed to race from 20th to 5th place in the Sprint. In the race he managed to win while starting from 10th place ( he got a 5 place grid penalty for a power unit change).
- Some controversy sparked from Verstappen defending Hamilton. As Hamilton was overtaking him on the straight, he didn't gave up his lead and forced both off the track. The steward decided to not investigate the incident. Many people say that this is not fair as many penalties where given for similar cases in the past.
