Following the surprisingly eventful Monaco Grand Prix last week, F1 will not apply the brakes as the sport heads across into Spain for the first of two Spanish rounds, the Barcelona-Catalunya Grand Prix.
Formerly known as the Spanish Grand Prix, before Madrid took those honours, the sport will return to its old testing ground, the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya, for the second consecutive European race on the calendar.
Mercedes Kimi Antonelli will enter the event with an extended championship lead after he sealed his fifth consecutive race victory, increasing his advantage to 66 points ahead of Ferrari’s Lewis Hamilton, who jumped ahead of Mercedes’ George Russell in the standings in Monaco.
