George Russell Holds Off Max Verstappen for Azerbaijan F1 Grand Prix Win

George Russell won the Azerbaijan Formula 1 Grand Prix at the Baku City Circuit, holding off Max Verstappen by just 0.196 seconds at the finish line. It was Russell's third win of the season — following victories in Australia and Austria — and his first career Grand Slam, having led every lap, taken pole position, and set the fastest lap. Kimi Antonelli, who had crashed in qualifying, recovered to finish fifth and limit the damage to his Formula 1 championship lead.
