Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull Racing filled out the first three rows of the grid during the Spanish Grand Prix, respectively. Lewis Hamilton had a good start to stay ahead of everyone but Valtteri Bottas lost a position to Sebastian Vettel.

Romain Grosjean lost his drive and went off track, only to rejoin and collide with Pierre Gasly and Nico Hulkenberg. The incident warranted a safety car for a few laps to remove the cars and debris from the circuit.

Lewis was absolutely untouchable throughout the race, even as mini battles were fought behind him. There were six retirements during the Grand Prix, but the British driver was unfazed by anything going on behind him.

Mercedes had committed to a solo stop and Hamilton had to ensure that the tyres make the distance. Despite that, Lewis emerged victorious by a healthy margin of more than 20 seconds over his teammate, Valtteri Bottas.
