Formula One world champion Max Verstappen picked up his second win of the season with a dominating win at the Emilia Romagna GP on Sunday.

The Dutch lead home teammate Sergio Perez in a Red Bull one-two finish.

Lando Norris in a McLaren was third while championship leader Charles Leclerc, who started from second alongside pole-sitter Verstappen, was only sixth in his Ferrari.

It was a second win of the season for Verstappen after his triumph in Saudi Arabia.

“We were on it. As a team, we did everything well. I think this 1-2 is deserved,” said the Dutchman.

Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton endured another miserable outing, finishing a lowly 13th while Mercedes teammate George Russell was fourth.

In the meanwhile, what was supposed to be a happy homecoming for Ferrari, turned into a nightmare for the Italian team.

Ferrari’s championship leader Charles Leclerc fought back to sixth after a late spin while running in third place. His Spanish teammate Carlos Sainz went out in an opening lap collision.
