Lewis Hamilton declares Red Bull’s car the fastest he’s EVER seen after another one-two finish in Saudi Arabia for Sergio Perez and Max Verstappen… with frustrated Brit at a loss to explain how Christian Horner’s team have stormed so far ahead

Lewis Hamilton said Red Bull have built the fastest Formula One car he has ever seen after Sergio Perez saw off Max Verstappen to win the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix. George Russell took third place after Aston Martin’s Fernando Alonso was demoted a position following a controversial post-race 10-second penalty. Perez and Verstappen were both more than a second-a-lap quicker than their rivals. Alonso finished 20.7 seconds behind Perez, who eased off in the closing stages. His Aston Martin mechanics then touched his car as he served his penalty resulting in a second sanction, denying the Spaniard a 100th career podium. Such is the speed of the Red Bull that Alonso did not even put up a fight in keeping Verstappen behind and risk losing time to Russell and Hamilton in the fight for the final podium spot.
