Sergio Perez sealed a fifth career Formula 1 victory after taking a dominant win in the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, while also leading home a second Red Bull one-two finish to start the year.

Mercedes’ George Russell was the fourth car to cross the line, the Briton then briefly inheriting P3 due to Alonso being given a 10-second penalty after the race, only for the decision to later be overturned. The Briton finished fourth, ahead of the other Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton.

Lance Stroll brought out the Safety Car after he was told to stop his Aston Martin on track amid mechanical trouble, while Williams’ Alex Albon also retired from the race with a brake problem.
