Max Verstappen rounded off a dominant weekend with victory in the first Chinese Grand Prix for five years on Sunday to extend his world championship lead, a day after romping to sprint victory, Report informs via France 24.
The three-time world champion controlled the race on its return to the Shanghai International Circuit for the first time since 2019.

"It felt amazing. The whole weekend we were incredibly quick. Just enjoyable to drive on every compound," said Verstappen, who took his first victory in China.
"We survived the restarts well and the car was basically on rails and I could do whatever I wanted with it.
"Those kind of weekends are amazing to feel and to achieve what we did this weekend is fantastic."

Race strategy was largely decided by a safety car on lap 23, which enabled most cars to switch to hard tyres till the end.
George Russell came sixth for Mercedes with Alonso finishing seventh.
The Spanish veteran, 42, made a spectacular late charge through the field from 12th after his final stop on lap 43 of the 56-lap race.
