T58

4th career victory for Leclerc, the 240th for Ferrari. The Monegasque was also elected driver of the day by the fans

T58

Disillusionment for Alonso. Long in the game, the Spaniard was never able to make his medium rubber work. Returning to the pits, the double world champion finished last…

T58

Hamilton finished at the foot of the podium but nevertheless collected big points like McLaren thanks to the 5th and 6th positions of Norris and Ricciardo. The French Ocon and Gasly finished 7th and 9th respectively. Passing through the pit lane on lap 57, Albon finally took the point for 10th place after starting from last position.

T58

LECLERC VICTORY! Second success of the season for the Monegasque who achieved a perfect operation with 26 points in addition to the retirements of Sainz and Verstappen. He flies away at the head of the champion! Pérez and Russell complete the podium.

T58

Last lap of the race! Leclerc starts it almost 20 seconds ahead

T57

If he is in 7th position, Albon will lose everything. The Thai still has to make his mandatory stop. 

T52

Alonso in pain with the medium rubber. The Spaniard saw Zhou and Magnussen scolding him. He fell back to 14th

T52

7 laps from the checkerboard here is the provisional ranking

T50

After around ten minutes behind, Gasly was finally able to get rid of Stroll. Here he is 9th!

T45

Alonso finally managed to overtake Schumacher to gain 12th place. The Spaniard now attacks Bottas, Gasly and Stroll. He could liven up the end of the race

T45

Stroll doesn't seem to understand and continues to zigzag. Definitely…

T43

5 second penalty for Stroll for his numerous zigzags in a straight line. He could still be sanctioned for pushing Bottas out while defending his position

T43

We imagine Red Bull scrutinizing Pérez’s car closely. The Austrian team does not want to suffer another double retirement after that in Bahrain at the start of the season5

T41

With the abandonment of Verstappen and Sainz, Leclerc will be another big hit if he manages to reach the finish. He could leave Australia with 26 points since he has the best time in the race. The Monegasque could hit very hard!

T40

Green flag already waved! The race can resume

T40

Let's take the opportunity to put on the mediums. The Spaniard comes out 13th

T39

Verstappen at a standstill! New mechanical problem for the Dutchman and 2nd retirement in 3 Grands Prix! Terrible disillusionment for the Red Bull driver who saw his car catch fire from behind. Virtual Safety Car deployed

T36

Pérez manages to get the better of Russell after chasing him for several laps. Here is the Mexican back on the provisional podium

T34

Norris and Ricciardo get rid of Magnussen. McLaren drivers are now 7th and 8th
