Overview
- Antonelli converted pole into his fifth straight win on Sunday, June 7, extending his championship lead and leaving Mercedes in control of the title race.
- The race saw seven retirements and an early exit for Max Verstappen after his car stalled at the start, which created early gaps that Antonelli exploited.
- Around lap 60 a newly resurfaced section of asphalt began to lift, causing crashes by Lance Stroll and Charles Leclerc and triggering a roughly 40–45 minute red‑flag stoppage for repairs.
- Race stewards issued a cluster of five‑ and ten‑second pit‑lane speed penalties that materially changed finishing order and produced provisional classifications now under post‑race review.
- Alpine and driver Franco Colapinto publicly complained about strategy and the penalties, lodged requests for review, and will head into the quick turnaround at Barcelona seeking clarifications and possible appeals.
