- Race: Did Not Finish

• The Spanish race driver from Williams gained two places at the beginning of the race to move up to sixth, holding quicker cars behind him.
• After resisting in the Top 10 with Soft tyres, he switched to Mediums and recovered a few places until he was hit by Red Bull’s Yuki Tsunoda, which resulted in severe damage to his right hand-side sidepod.
• Retirement was the only choice left for the Spaniard, who would have fought for points had it not been for that incident.

QUOTES:
“A frustrating end to a promising race. After a nice start, I used up my Soft tyres battling hard and trying to keep within DRS of the faster cars around me. Once the Soft compound was done, we stopped and went back at it gaining positions with good overtakes. Unfortunately, the incident with Yuki cost us the race. The impact on my right hand sidepod caused major damage and that was it for me. Despite the end result, there are a lot of positives to take. We had good pace all weekend and could have been in the points today, so we’ll take it as it is and look at how we can come back stronger next week in Saudi".
