Race Highlights | 2023 Belgian Grand Prix

Leclerc, Perez, Hamilton, Sainz. I know who you are. It's part with a good start by Charles Leclerc who blocks a little Perez. Attention there, oh there there there, we're almost a trois de front. Lewis Hamilton remains in third position. Two McLarens, one behind the other. Verstappen who is already behind Sainz's Ferrari and who seems to pass the McLaren. Ah, there's a McLaren that's been touched. There's a McLaren that's been hit, which is a little slow. He's in the mountain. It looks like a hole. And attack of Perez on Leclerc in the right line. Perez who's already going to take advantage. Oh there, au premier corner, Sergio Perez. You know what? And attention, Lewis Hamilton is very close. And Verstappen is already fourth. Incredible, Verstappen already fourth. Until then, it's all right. Il a Sainz sur la gauche. It is a Saint on the left. Ah, Sainz who rates a little son braking and he is coincident, Piastri. Yeah, he said what I could do? I had nowhere else to go. And he turned around like I wasn't there. And there you go. And the incident at the first corner will not be investigated by the Stuarts. What a chance we have. Your opinion on the incident yesterday between Lewis Hamilton and Perez? It was a magnificent fight in very difficult track conditions. They touched each other and Lewis was penalized by five seconds. I would have given Perez five seconds. But you see there are differences of opinion. It's just a fact of course that engages the two pilots To take into account his neighbour when making attempts to overtake. And it shouldn't go any further. Anyway, that, effectively, you already understood that we have The Commission has not yet adopted a decision on the proposal. I'm like you. I like to let them race, la bagarre que'il parce que otherwise. What's going on? It's the Ferrari that passed by Yuki Tsunoda. Yuki Tsunoda who is past with the Alfa Tauri before Sainz who is really in trouble now. And so the Williams who pass Sainz really in trouble. I wonder if Norris is already back. It's a little late for Lando Norris. And there it is, it's over. Max just passed Lewis Hamilton in third place to a second two of Charles Leclerc. But as you said, Jackie, nice start to the Hamilton Grand Prix. Attention, voilá, he is approaching. Is that what you're gonna pass Charles Leclerc? Yes, he will pass. Attention, not obvious. The car is like on the rails. But you said, we were discussing all the time, he is so confident. But it's an extraordinary machine. He is extraordinary. He can be close to the number of records in a season. Oui, alors voilà encore a surpass. I'm not going to say that. So Perez, Verstappen, two seconds eight. Leclerc, Hamilton, and Fernando Alonso. There, on a Daniel Ricciardo in a fight with Lando Norris. Attention down there, the aspiration. Yeah, but Fernando Alonso who gets passed by the A. That's still a little surprising. It's Hulkenberg and there's a bit of fighting on all levels. Verstappen remains two seconds behind Perez who, for the moment, made the resistance. 17th round, he risks taking the lead of the Grand Prix de Belgique. This is a choice. Voilà, and he's past Max Verstappen, leader of the Grand Prix. Devant Perez, that will be my 17 rounds. There, Russell, it will pass. That's it. Yeah, that's right. And this rain will last about ten minutes. If we have to stop, are we going to meet the intermediaries or are we going to make it rain? In my opinion, the intermediaries, because of the rains, they are very unhappy. The pilots say it's six, seven seconds slower. They're not... good, but no, you have to see the intensity. And look at that, Verstappen with the medium gums. He's got a little boob. There are gout marks on the camera. Terrible, for the moment, Lando Norris with his tender gums. But as you said, there are gout. There is no... voilà, there, il pleut, non? That's the plus fort. So what are we gonna do? Russell's home, maybe that's a good move. But at the same time, does the track allow for the intermediate ones? It's not safe. That's a terrible choice for Mercedes. What are we gonna put him on? And on met les tendres, on met des slicks. It was a good day. Keep it up. It's certainly not enough to put the inters now. It's not possible. Russell is home. Ricciardo is also back. And Yuki Tsunoda, he passes Gasly. He's in sixth place. It works really, really well. Pierre Gasly was always under pressure from Albonne. Let's see if he can get through. Pierre Gasly with the Alpine. Albonne with the Williams. Oh, passing there, it's not easy. Can he keep the advantage or not? He's outside. But yeah, there, I think he's slipping a little. Albonne too, it is past. After that, I must dare to do it. Good game, Pierre. Ocon who always fights, there, there. Magnifique, the overtaking. It's all over now, but it's over. Oh, the millimeter. And yes, and here it is, Esteban in ninth position. Gasly who pouses pour essay de revenir. It's three seconds and Yuki Tsunoda. Here's the man who walks and finds himself. The Belle course d'Esteban. It's the eighth. Good for you. Finally, of course, Esteban Ocon, who is in eighth place. These are good points to take for Alpine. Voilà, winner of the Grand Prix de Belgique for the third time in a row. He told us yesterday, I'm home. This is my home Grand Prix, my second home Grand Prix. Perez, second at over 22 seconds. And Hamilton, he's in a good tour. Hamilton, Prime, second sector, not bad. He's losing a little bit in the third sector. This is the OS. On va voir son chrono. I'm going to see you. Is he the one who takes the fastest tour? Is that Verstappen? The answer, Hamilton, is 1'47.305.
