The race started intensely, featuring a strong launch from both Hamilton and Antonelli, who immediately put themselves into contention. Leveraging his experience, Hamilton managed to maintain the lead through the first corner. Nevertheless, Antonelli stayed close behind, eventually overtaking Hamilton in the eighth lap to take command of the race. From that point onward, Antonelli controlled the event and successfully defended his lead until the checkered flag.
