The Azerbaijan Grand Prix was a big debacle, especially for the teams with a Ferrari engine. Four of the six cars with a Ferrari engine retired, while Red Bull Racing managed to take full advantage with P1 for Max Verstappen and P2 for Sergio Perez.
Red Bull wins
After a second and third place in qualifying, Red Bull has once again proven that it has done good business with the new car in 2022. Where the Austrians were still struggling with reliability problems at the beginning of the season, it is now Ferrari that keeps making mistake after mistake. George Russell takes advantage with a third place.
Lewis Hamilton was troubled by his back during the race, but drove to a fourth place. Pierre Gasly also drove another strong race and finished fifth. Sebastian Vettel, Fernando Alonso, Daniel Ricciardo, Lando Norris and Esteban Ocon grabbed the remaining points.
