The third race of the Formula 1 season saw a firm challenge to 7-time winner, Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes, with Max Verstappen taking the lead with a deft challenge at the start. The cars came together, rubbing Hamilton and dropping him from first in an elbows-out pass from Verstappen.
The Mercedes team however out-manouvered Red Bull with a pit stop for fresher tires late in the race to make a pass for first six laps from the end. Scintillating action.
