Max Verstappen - The Canadian PressSHANGHAI — Max Verstappen, continuing his dominance in Formula 1, took Saturday's first sprint race of the season — the prelude to the full-blown Chinese Grand Prix on Sunday.
“The first few laps were quite hectic," Verstappen said. “Once I got in the lead the car was handling pretty well.”Red Bull's Verstappen is the three-time defending F1 champion and is almost unbeatable in any format. “I forgot what he felt like to be out ahead,” Hamilton said. “It felt good for the short while that I had it. I was grateful for the moment.”
Lando Norris of McLaren and Hamilton of Mercedes started on the front row with Fernando Alonso of Aston Martin and Verstappen on the second row.
