Spanish Grand Prix

 Spanish Grand Prix 

 

The battle between Red Bull and Ferrari continues in Barcelona following another Red Bull win in Miami. This race looked like it was going to be Ferrari's with Charles Leclerc leading the majority of the time with almost a 16-second gap out in P1. A power engine failure would force Leclerc to retire the car and give up his P1 lead in which we heard much frustration over the headsets. The other Ferrari in Carlos Sainz would spin out by himself early on in the race finding himself as far as P15 but would make up incredible ground finishing the race  P4.

 

For Red Bull, it was a race that could've been lost especially with Max Verstappen spinning out the same turn Sainz did as well as having trouble with his DRS which cost him a lot to overtake George Russell. The ultimate teammate in Sergio Perez would have P1 in the race until Verstappen caught up to him and would give the position to his teammate. With the Red Bulls taking P1 and P2 in Spain, they take the top position in the championship standings away from Ferrari.
