Result Description
The race started at 15:00 local time on 12 June. Sergio Pérez took the lead heading into turn 1 on lap 1, after polesitter Charles Leclerc locked up his front left tyre. On Lap 9, Carlos Sainz Jr. pulled over in the run-off area of turn 4 after suffering a hydraulics issue with his car. This resulted in the virtual safety car, in which most of the grid, including Leclerc, chose to pit with the Red Bulls of Max Verstappen and Pérez choosing not to. On lap 15, Verstappen overtook Pérez into turn 1. Pérez pitted on lap 17 for new hards, a slow stop meant that when he exited the pits, Leclerc had passed him, and Verstappen, who pitted two laps later, was able to overcut his team-mate. On lap 21, Leclerc's car started billowing smoke with an engine problem on the main straight causing his retirement, with Zhou Guanyu retiring on lap 23 with a hydraulics issue. On lap 31, Kevin Magnussen's car also had an engine issue resulting in smoke. He pulled over just before turn 15 off the racing line, but it still resulted in a second virtual safety car. Most of the grid chose to pit for fresher tyres. Tsunoda was shown the black-and-orange flag for a DRS failure, which was fixed with speed tape, and him dropped to 13th. Williams's Latifi received a ten-second stop and go penalty after for a grid infringement and was later given a five-second time penalty for ignoring blue flags. On lap 44, Lewis Hamilton overtook Pierre Gasly for fourth. On lap 46, Lance Stroll was called in to retire due to high oscillations. Verstappen won the race, and Pérez finished second. George Russell finished third for Mercedes, with Hamilton in fourth, and Gasly fifth. Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, Daniel Ricciardo, Lando Norris and Esteban Ocon completed the top 10.
