HIGHLIGHTS: Catch up on a frantic first ever Saudi Arabian Grand Prix
Crashes, controversy and serious championship implications – the first ever race to be held at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit had it all.
Title protagonists Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton clashed multiple times throughout a bad-tempered encounter at the front of the pack – with Verstappen handed a five and 10-second penalty for two separate incidents on Lap 37, as Hamilton won the race to draw level on points with one round to go.
But there was plenty of action behind too, as Esteban Ocon came within an ace of scoring Alpine’s second consecutive podium – while two red flags were called for after crashes involving the likes of Nikita Mazepin, Sergio Perez and George Russell.
Relive all the action from the inaugural Saudi Arabian Grand Prix in the video up top.
