So in 2022
Charles Leclerc conquered the pole position ahead of Max Verstappen at the end of a very excited Q3. In the first attempt, the Ferrari driver spun at the last chicane and then placed the usual ‘crazy lap’ in the second and final attempt. Max Verstappen, on the other hand, had problems with the DRS in the second attempt and therefore immediately gave up trying to improve his time. In the race, Leclerc led the race in an authoritative manner while behind him, first Sainz and then Verstappen were the protagonists of digressions in the gravel in Turn-4. Leclerc, however, was forced to retire by the power unit knockout, a DNF that opened the door to success for Verstappen despite DRS malfunctions that forced Red Bull to change the Dutchman’s strategy, ‘stuck’ behind George Russell. On the podium together with Verstappen were Perez – disappointed at having had to give way to Verstappen without the position being returned to him – and Russell.
