With fifth place, this was the worst result of the season for Max Verstappen. Despite this, he maintains the lead in the overall standings, with 374 points, 151 ahead of second place, his teammate Sergio Pérez.
Carlos Sainz is fifth in the overall, with 142 points. In the constructors’ championship, Ferrari has consolidated third place, just 24 points behind second-placed Mercedes. Red Bull remains in the lead with 597 points.
