HIGHLIGHTS: Watch all the action from the Spanish GP as Hamilton beats Verstappen to victory
Max Verstappen got the better start in the Spanish Grand Prix, blasting past polesitter Lewis Hamilton off the line and into the lead at Turn 1 – but it was the reigning world champion who had the last laugh, pulling off a brilliant two-stop strategy to take victory from his title rival.
The two drivers were battling hard throughout the race, as Mercedes pulled a surprise to pit Hamilton for a second stop, and the Brit then made the strategy work with some brilliant laps and what turned out to be a fairly straightforward pass on Verstappen in the final few laps of the race.
