Race Trace

Stint-1

STINT-1

->Verstappen, Leclerc, and Russel all started the race on the Soft tyre and Hamilton, Perez and Sainz started on the Medium tyre.

->Verstappen was the fastest car on the soft, Leclerc matched the Redbull on pace for most of the stint but looks like Ferrari had tyre degradation than the Redbull on the Softs.

->Mercedes were the third fastest car today on the softs and looked like they couldn’t take care of the tyres as good as the Red Bull.

->Sainz was faster than Hamilton on the Mediums by quite a huge margin, this may be due to Hamilton being stuck in traffic.

->Looks like Mercedes and Ferrari had similar tyre degradation on the Medium
