Patient Max Verstappen wins Saudi Arabian GP to kick-start his title defence
Formula One world champion Max Verstappen scored his first points of the season in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, bouncing back as a winner after Red Bull's surprise blank in Bahrain the weekend before. The 24-year-old, now third in the standings after the opening two races, said he played the long game to win a 50-lap battle with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc. "I'm really happy that we finally kick-started the season," said the Dutchman.
