Description: On the sixth lap Max Verstappen has already managed to outsmart his great rival Lewis Hamilton. Valtteri Bottas pulled the field back into a special place and Verstappen was awake. Hamilton, on the other hand, was not and so he saw the Dutchman's RB16B pass him in Turn 1. Just a few laps later, Hamilton managed to regain P2.

On the sixth lap Max Verstappen has already managed to outsmart his great rival Lewis Hamilton. Valtteri Bottas pulled the field back into a special place and Verstappen was awake. Hamilton, on the other hand, was not and so he saw the Dutchman's RB16B pass him in Turn 1. Just a few laps later, Hamilton managed to regain P2.

Sergio Perez was also alert and managed to overtake Carlos Sainz in the Ferrari. He could not hold this fourth position for long though, because Lando Norris went from P6 to P4 very quickly on the soft red tyres.
