Red Bull Racing's Max Verstappen secured his seventh victory at the 2024 Formula 1 World Championship by winning the Spanish Grand Prix at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. Verstappen, who started second on the grid, took the lead after passing Mercedes' George Russell on lap 3. Seven-time Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton achieved his first podium finish in seven months by placing third. The race also saw a remarkable start from George Russell, who jumped from fourth to first, inspired by Fernando Alonso's 2011 start.
