The most important moment of the race took place right after the beginning, when, in the desperate attempt to keep its position, Verstappen exceeded the limits of the circuit, appearing by Oscar Piastri's attack.

It was penalized with 5 seconds because it did not give up the position of the Australian. The “Papaya” team opted for a “undercut”, which proved to be effective. After the tire exchange, Oscar paraded on the streets of the Red Sea circuit.
