Rins proved to be an early threat for the victory as he worked his way up from seventh on the grid to the podium places by the third lap, before engaging with Pramac’s Johann Zarco over second. Zarco was able to use the brute power of the Ducati to keep Rins at bay, with the […]
After being teammates in karting, Hamilton and Rosberg raced at Mercedes between 2013 and 2016, going head-to-head for the F1 world championship in their final three years together.

Espargaro endured another tough qualifying in the second Qatar outing which left him down in 15th for the start, though he was able to make his way to the lead group having had pace good enough to fight for victory. But the Honda rider made “two huge mistakes” in the closing stages when he ran […]

The Australian had qualified in sixth position for his debut with the Woking-based team, but dropped down to seventh in the race, finishing two places and some 20 seconds behind team-mate Lando Norris. A disappointed Ricciardo said after the race that he was hoping his lack of pace had been caused by damage to this […]
Quartararo was left in ninth at the end of the opening laps having been swamped from fifth on the grid. But the Yamaha rider carved his way through the pack and by lap 19 had taken over from long-time leader Jorge Martin on the Pramac Ducati, from which point Quartararo sped off to the fourth […]
