While Verstappen managed to keep his Red Bull car out of trouble, Fernando Alonso made a mega-start. In the process, he outsmarted Sergio Perez, who lost the lead to the 41-year-old Spaniard. Not long after, however, his Aston Martin was found to be out of place at the start, which earned Alonso a five-second time penalty.
