Fox News
Red Bull's Max Vertsappen won the Formula One Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku after the Ferrari's of Charles LeClerc and Carlos Sainz suffered mechanical failures.
Leclerc started from pole, immediately lost the lead in the first corner to Sergio Pérez, Verstappen's Red Bull teammate, then used smart strategy to cycle his Ferrari back to the front. Leclerc regained the lead when he pitted under "virtual safety car" speed restrictions while the two Red Bull cars stayed out.
Leclerc seemed poised to challenge for the win, but the Monaco driver's car started spewing smoke on lap 20 of 51 and he had to pull into the pits.
