Chronicle of the sprint race:
Lewis Hamilton, who started the domino effect, was the most fortunate, as he remained in ninth position in the time table without apparently serious damage. Furthermore, the FIA did not even investigate the incident, considering it a racing incident, so the British Mercedes driver managed to escape the multiple collision unscathed.
However, it became clear that it was not the best day for the seven-time world champion shortly after when, with the safety car on the track, the cars passed through the pits to avoid the pieces of cars that had been scattered around the first corner and the Mercedes exceeded the speed limit in the pit lanestipulated at 80 km/h.
Due to this, the FIA imposed a 20-second penalty on the Briton after the sprint race, the equivalent of a Drive Through, for which he lost the point added with his eighth place.
