F1 Chinese Grand Prix LIVE: Result as Max Verstappen beats Lando Norris to win as Lewis Hamilton claims points

Max Verstappen powered to another dominant win in Sunday’s Chinese Grand Prix, as Lewis Hamilton complained his car was “slow” and “broken” after he finished ninth.

]Verstappen emerged unscathed from two safety car periods to secure his 38th win from the last 49 staged in Formula One on his unstoppable march towards a fourth straight championship. But for Hamilton, now 50 races and 868 long days without a victory, this marked another sobering afternoon in his uncompetitive Mercedes.

McLaren’s Lando Norris delivered an impressive performance to finish second – his best result of the season so far – one place ahead of Verstappen’s Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez, with Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz fourth and fifth for Ferrari. George Russell was sixth.
