McLaren locked out the top two positions, followed by Ferrari taking third and fourth with Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton. Five distinct constructors populated the top six, with Mercedes, Racing Bulls, Aston Martin, Kick Sauber, and Haas filling out the remaining points positions.
Tyre Strategy Variety
7.5
The frontrunners predominantly executed two-stop Medium-Hard-Medium strategies, with drivers offsetting stint lengths to build tyre deltas. High track temperatures over 50°C prompted different management strategies across the grid, including one-stop attempts further down the field.
Dnf Factor
