Throughout the race, Verstappen maintained a commanding lead, navigating through the chaotic events behind him. Various stoppages in the form of Safety Cars added to the drama, including incidents involving Valtteri Bottas and Lance Stroll. Despite these challenges, Verstappen managed the restarts effectively, ultimately securing another triumph.
