However, controversy marred the race when Fernando Alonso came under scrutiny for his driving tactics, resulting in a penalty. Despite concerns over potentially hazardous maneuvers during George Russell’s crash, stewards ultimately deemed Alonso not directly responsible for the incident. Nonetheless, he received a 20-second reprimand, relegating the Spaniard to eighth place.

In the midfield, both Red Bull and Haas capitalized on the situation, earning crucial points. Yuki Tsunoda, Nico Hulkenberg, and Kevin Magnussen showcased impressive performances, securing seventh, ninth, and tenth places, respectively.
