Race Highlights | 2024 Chinese Grand Prix

the race in Shanghai begins in Five Lights time the Chinese Grand Prix is underway and Max V staffen gets the launch he knes to chop across Sergio Perez Fernando Alonzo does he feel Brave to sweep around the outside of the Mexican driver gets the jump at the moment is the grip there Alonzo's being really brave but the grip runs out he's got the inside line he's got second position he moves past Perez as for stappen holds the lead but look at the traction that Alonzo's got fighting the car it is for staffen Alonzo then Perez were on board with fourth place Lando Norris alono was working so hard to bring those tires to life on the warm up but is paid off the commitment and confidence he had around the outside of turn one was staggering thought he was going to have a look at P1 for a minute as well oh that really really was an aggressive start by the driver in the green Aston Martin Lando Norris chasing down Perez Perez did not enjoy racing in the pack earlier on and if you're thinking who's that in the house that is Nico hulkenberg up two places poor getaway for both Ferraris lir down to eighth SS down to ninth the team's trying to get the tires up to temperature trying to make overtakes as we see now a big opportunity for charlot Clair trying to make amends for losing places off the line and he makes the pass into turn 14 gets past hulkenberg Who's down to eighth SS trying to come with him as well hulkenberg on the inside into the final Corner that'll compromise his exit and science could do with clearing the H as soon as possible maybe into to turn one here let's see he pulls out of the slipstream building up to 200 mph DRS is now enabled but SS didn't have to wait for it hulkenberg knows his fight is not with the cars from Marinello looks like Alonzo's pushing their tires a lot harder than us this is good it is good news will there be any defense offered by Fernando Alonzo or does he have to think about the long game and Sergio Perez Powers by and retakes second place in the Grand Prix so here we go with the young British driver Lando Norris trying to get past the oldest driver in the field Fernando Alonso focusing on the race again park it on the Apex he tried that on the lap to the gridge and Lando norres takes third place this is so important for lir to try and make the pass early using one of the DRS zones How brave is lir feeling now that move isn't done yet but lir makes the pass shuts the door and takes the long way round to take sixth place ah There's an opportunity now for the Ferrari that was late to pull out of the slipstream but that's another position gained for the man from Monaco through go charlot Clair he's up to fifth and he's going chasing Fernando Alonzo here's our race leader Max a stappen all by himself as Perez comes in in fact he's so far ahead Red Bull can double stack not even worry about it that is so impressive from Red Bull 2.1 and two second stops backto back problem for valy botas he'd been having a good weekend he was challenging for the points but still still he can't find his way to the top 10 thankfully for Norris he will take the the 8C benefit that you get for uh for pitting under the VSC 15sec loss instead of a 23 and the full safety car is out they cannot move that car due to this man's retirement and into the pitch we come with Max vapen and Perez has been called in Red Bull will have to double stack once again Perez is going to lose track position here so through goes Norris up to second place it will change for you on the left hand side and Perez drops down now Alonzo comes into the pits can lir get out before the Mexican driver can he get to that safety car line I think he's going to do it and he gets pass so it's for stappen Norris and charir as Perez rejoins here we go lock up for everyone oh contact at the back between stroll and I think Ricardo as Max for stappen yeah hulkenberg moves up Ricardo moves down it was a mess at The Hairpin the green flag flies once again at Shanghai International and it's a great restart for V stappen this was at the head oh that is ridiculous that is a huge hit into the back of Daniel Ricardo for stroll who then had to pit this is what it looked like on board they just clob at him so stroll who was hoping to returned to the points today and had a good oh spin in the background for one of the vabs and there you go oh that is so disappointing for Yuki Coda who is pulling off and will that require more intervention that car looks like it's in trouble at the back Magnuson on board we've seen that before there is the contact damage to the front left for Magnuson puncher maybe more for Yuki Coda this is on board the Japanese driver and this was against Carlos SS and that's the soft tire in full operating well it caused chaos but once he fired it up it's very effective tire and he got past sights take two this time the pass for stroll who's able to get past ah Magnuson leaves a wheel in and they somehow make their way around the corner stroll leaves the widest birth possible and this is really really great battling for the last place on the road because Daniel Ricardo has come into the pits and we're scrapping all the way through the order but stroll in the green Aston Martin and Magnuson finding himself back ahead for the time being it as you were into The Hairpin or is it late Lun time now for the Canadian driver gets to the Apex first will that be the pass oh they're treating us to some great battling through this one Magnuson doesn't want to give the place up and they'll still continue this Jan I got to bring you in now this is our new vov dejon isn't it a lap of wheel tohe action swapping places every corner here comes Magnuson again around the outside and this time strolls elbow is out to claim the place and this is the move for Perez trying to get past Char clir canair plac the Ferrari in order to fight back it's going to be close between these two side by side they go no Perez gets ahead Alonzo can take that soft tire no further and they felt the need to roll the dice but it's not paid off these two were not on the friendliest terms former teammates by the end of their time together and alono will love to make the move as quickly as possible man that is a quick Direction change and that is as quickly as possible and it will not be a contest with fresh tires with DRS he seated the place to get rid of the softs he put on the medium tires and another place gained by Fernando Alonso who goes after Lewis Hamilton who's up 10 places at the moment oh he nearly dropped it from the gravel and did a caros signs from yesterday Alonzo so nearly into the barrier and out of the race how has he done that 42 years of age but still providing box office moments Fernando Alonzo pass Lewis Hamilton and up to eighth it could have all been over a few Corners ago to The Hairpin turn 14 another position gained and up to seventh position for the first time in his career Max vapen crosses the line to take victory in Shanghai his 58th Formula 1 win and he has destroyed the field once more the Dutchman leads home Lando Norris two red bulls on the podium thanks to Sergio Perez and a first victory in Shanghai for Max nappen who extends his lead in the driver championship
