F1 Results Today: Saudi Arabian Grand Prix times - Verstappen dominates as Bearman BEATS Hamilton
Max Verstappen maintained his 100% record in 2024 with a comfortable victory at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
His team-mate Sergio Perez followed him home for a second consecutive second-placed finish, but Charles Leclerc's extra point for the fastest lap meant that Red Bull were thwarted in their attempt to hoover up the maximum available points over the first two races.

Perez picked up a five second penalty for an unsafe release from his pit box, but had enough of a cushion back to Charles Leclerc in third to keep his position.
Leclerc's new Ferrari team-mate Oliver Bearman put in a sterling drive to move up from 11th on the grid to finish seventh, holding off his charging countrymen Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton in the closing stages.
Pierre Gasly was forced to retire with a gearbox issue at the end of the first lap, the first retirement of the season after every single car finished the Bahrain Grand Prix last week.
Lance Stroll followed him into the DNF column a few laps later, clipping the wall on the inside of one corner to break his left front wheel and send him careening into the barriers, bringing out a safety car.
