Red bull has dominated the Spanish Grand Prix in a one-two victory

Max Verstappen claimed the top spot, with teammate Sergio Perez coming in second.

The grid provided some drama, as Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc lead the race in pole position but was forced to retire the car on alap 27 with a power unit failure.

Verstappen took advantage of Ferrari’s downfall despite his own car’s DRS concerns and dominated the race in scorching temperatures.
