The Saudi Arabia Grand Prix was won by Sergio Perez. Exactly halfway through the race, Max Verstappen was in second place, but he failed to outsmart his teammate in 25 laps. George Russell took advantage of a time penalty from Fernando Alonso to finish on P3.

Alonso thus narrowly missed out on his second podium finish in a row. Lewis Hamilton started the race on the hard tyre, which earned him fifth place, ahead of both Ferrari drivers. Behind them, we see the two Alpines of Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly. Yuki Tsunoda was long on course for tenth place and one World Championship point, but in the closing stages Kevin Magnussen still managed to move up one place.
