A filmmaker with a soft spot for Ronnie Peterson, Gilles Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen and above all, Tazio Nuvolari and Ayrton Senna, is also a diehard Formula One fan since the age of 4 (mid-90's). An avid researcher of the past of Grand Prix Racing since before it was even named F1, and with a thirst for knowledge of the ins and outs of the actuality of the sport, as well as for the technical aspects that define it, is a member of GPblog since 2023, where he has put his love of racing to good use.
With Esteban Ocon's DNF, Race Direction chose to bring out the VSC, and with Andrea Kimi Antonelli's DNF they decided to bring out a full Safety Car.
On lap 47 Antonelli parked his car to the side of the track, which surprisingly brought out a full Safety Car instead of a VSC. This prompted another round of pitstops, but also closed the gaps at the front with Max Verstappen and Norris pitting for fresh rubber as Oscar Piastri gambled to stay out on used tyres to take P2.
Charles Leclerc stayed out, whilst Alexander Albon pitted for fresh rubber coming out in P5 behind the Monegasque. Further back, George Russell, Lewis Hamilton, Carlos Sainz, Isack Hadjar and Nico Hulkenberg rounded up the top ten.
