The most interesting part of the race came from Ferrari as Lewis Hamilton demanded to swap positions with Charles Leclerc, and he had to wait and even make ironic comments on radio before that happened. After that, however, the British racer was not quicker than his Italian teammate and a few laps later, Leclerc was given his position back from Hamilton as Charles finished 7^th while Lewis’ 8^th.
