9 His race was defined by both standing starts. Strong getaway from third offered the inside line, along with a lead he could easily build as the Ferraris focused on a one-stop strategy. Good launch at the red-flag restart warded off second-half threats, and he could focus on pace rather than battles.

2 Admitted to “only thinking of winning” into Turn 1. Seemed to expect Leclerc to disappear, and made no accommodation for other cars while turning in, yielding a clash and a seismic crowd reaction. Gets one point for strong getaway, and the other for having a go. But a wasted opportunity.
