The Dutchman suffered his first retirement since 2022 in Melbourne last time out to snap a nine-race winning streak but had no mechanical issues this week in a dominant performance to make it three wins from four races this season. Ferrari’s other driver Carlos Sainz, the winner in Australia two weeks ago, rode fresher tires in the latter stages of the race to grab the final podium spot, edging out Leclerc, who used a one-stop strategy.
“It was quite tough out there … I thought that maybe one stop was quicker and we were on the two. I had to overtake a lot of cars out there today,” said Sainz.McLaren’s Lando Norris finished fifth, with the Mercedes pair of George Russell and Hamilton down in a disappointing seventh and ninth, respectively, after a tactical strategy to switch to hard tires early in the race backfired.
