The Formula 1 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix is already legendary, with a mixed second start full of accidents.
The 2021 Formula 1 World Championship is experiencing a new very mixed turn. The 2nd race restart of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix saw the fight between Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen intensify again.
Lewis Hamilton gets the best start. But Max Verstappen does not give in to the Mercedes. He delays his braking and recovers first place by cutting the first corner. Behind, the effect of the peloton disorients Sergio Pérez, who crushes Charles Leclerc, who sends the Mexican straight into the wall. The pilots launched at high speed are surprised and fail to brake in time. Nikita Mazepin hits the back of George Russell’s Williams. And the red flag and immediately pulled out.

In the end, Max Verstappen was offered a tempting offer from the FIA. He therefore gave way to Esteban Ocon and Lewis Hamilton, to start again in 3rd position.
