Max Verstappen claimed his 40th Formula 1 career win after an utterly dominant display at the 2023 Spanish Grand Prix.

The Dutchman was untouchable, but behind him a fantastic scrap developed between the two Mercedes – now with their pre-Imola upgrades in full swing – and Carlos Sainz’s Ferrari, before Sergio Perez’s climb through the field after starting 11th in the #11 Red Bull saw him hunting George Russell to the flag.
