Azerbaijan Grand Prix

George Russell converted pole position into victory at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix, leading Mercedes to a lights-to-flag result. An 90 OVR performance grade confirms a dominant weekend. Verstappen finished second for Red Bull, with Hadjar completing the podium.

The Decisive Factor

Verstappen's tire management (95 TIR) was the difference: preserving pace deep into stints when others fell away. That stint advantage helped convert a P8 start into P2.

Through the Field

Kimi Antonelli was the drive of the day, gaining 11 places from P16 to P5. A 90 RCR racecraft grade tells the story. Verstappen also impressed, gaining 6 places to finish P2.

Championship Impact

In the championship picture, Antonelli leads the title race with a 100% win probability. Antonelli leads Russell by 102 points in the standings.

Survival Race

It was a race of attrition, with 7 drivers failing to see the checkered flag. Among the casualties: Colapinto (P9), Gasly (P7), Norris (P5).
