F1西班牙大奖赛:安东内利再夺冠,虚拟安全车令诺里斯痛失胜利
在F1首次于马德里赛道赛道举行的西班牙大奖赛中,安东内利夺冠。杆位发车的诺里斯在比赛初段轻松拉开差距,但在虚拟安全车(VSC)出动后随即进站,导致名次大幅下滑,最终失去胜利。
F1 西班牙大奖赛:安东内利 再次获胜,VSC 让 诺里斯 付出代价
在 Norris 的强劲驾驶出现意外后,Antonelli 赢得了本赛季的第八场胜利
安东内利 在西班牙大奖赛中胜出,这是 Formula 1 在 马德里赛道 赛道举行的首场比赛,而杆位发车的 诺里斯 的比赛因策略而脱轨。
Norris 在比赛初期轻松拉开差距,但他在虚拟安全车介入后立即进站,这使他落后太多,以至于失去了胜利。
比赛一开始就乱作一团,领先集团纷纷切弯
倍耐力赛前预测软胎与中性胎在起步阶段的圈速差距为2.31秒,因此第二排发车的马克斯·维斯塔潘和刘易斯·汉密尔顿选择红色胎壁的软胎,而杆位得主诺里斯和身旁的安东内利则未作此选择,这一对比颇为有趣。
汉密尔顿的起步确实更好,但进入1号弯时已无空间发动进攻,随后便出现了(轻微的)混乱。安东内利和维斯塔潘都在2号弯切了弯,但梅赛德斯车手立即将领先位置交还给了诺里斯(并在接下来的一组弯道中再次让出),而红牛车手则保住了对法拉利的优势。
维斯塔潘坚称,由于汉密尔顿驾驶失控,他不得不采取避让动作,但红牛车队坚持要求他确保避免受罚,于是维斯塔潘在第4圈让当时领先的安东内利和汉密尔顿超过了自己。
几秒钟后,这位七届世界冠军开始抱怨刹车问题。他在第五圈开始失去速度,第六圈冲出赛道,并在被反复要求进站后退出比赛。
第10圈,Norris领先Antonelli五秒,领先Verstappen 11秒,领先勒克莱尔 13秒,领先拉塞尔 15秒;劳森又落后15秒,领跑‘中场’集团。
迈凯伦和Norris的战术失误?
另一起刹车问题,这次是斯特罗尔,让这位加拿大车手在第13圈退赛,并引发了虚拟安全车介入。Antonelli、Verstappen和Russell进站——尽管后者像Leclerc和Piastri一样使用硬胎起步——但Norris和Leclerc分别使用中性胎和硬胎留在赛道上。
比赛领先者 Norris 在 VSC 时段刚结束时被叫进站。他本可以留在外面,但还是进站了,更糟的是,他的停站还很慢。这位 迈凯伦 车手回到赛道时排在第五位——落后 Leclerc 16 秒,距离领先的进站车手 Antonelli 14 秒。
不出所料,这位意大利人在第 18 圈就追上了 Leclerc,但他没有发动进攻,并在第 21 圈开始掉队。“我没有碰到墙,但转向感觉很奇怪,”Antonelli 对工程师说。到第 25 圈时,他已经落后超过三秒。
Russell 以硬胎起步后换上了中性胎,他在 57 圈中的第 28 圈就第二次进站,换回白边胎。他在第 35 圈从外道超越 Lawson,抢下第五名,但他并不认同自己的策略。“我们为什么进站?我觉得我们本可以挡住 Norris,”这位 梅赛德斯 车手说。
斯特罗尔 引发了虚拟安全车
与此同时,Antonelli 与 Leclerc 的差距一直徘徊在三秒左右,但到第 45 圈时,领先集团彼此之间越来越近。Antonelli 现在紧跟在 Leclerc 身后,Norris 则向 Verstappen 施压争夺第三,这四位车手之间的差距在四秒之内。
Leclerc 等待安全车——但未能如愿
在那个阶段,非常明显的是,法拉利在推迟 Leclerc 唯一的一次进站,希望等到安全车——虚拟安全车也好,真实安全车也好——但并没有出现,这位摩纳哥车手在第 48 圈进站。他换上了软胎,准备进行九圈的冲刺,但出站后落入了前三名和第五名 Russell 之间的无人地带。
比赛末段成为 Antonelli、Verstappen 和 Norris 三人争夺胜利的较量。尽管彼此非常接近,但他们都无法做出任何类似超车的动作——直到倒数第二圈,这位红牛车手在遇到慢车后切过了 5 号弯的减速弯,而卫冕冠军未能成功向他施压。
Antonelli 最终拉开差距,赢得了 2026 赛季的第八场胜利,击败了 红牛 和 迈凯伦 的对手。尽管 法拉利 换上了新的软胎,Leclerc 还是以微弱优势力压 Russell 获得第四名;Lawson 获得第六名,这是他重返 红牛 后的第三场比赛。
加斯利 使用硬胎完成了长达 55 圈的艰巨赛段,长时间守住第七名,期待比赛后期出现中立化,但他最终不得不在绿旗下进站,最终以第 12 名完赛。
Gasly 的 阿尔派 队友 科拉平托 以中性胎起步,在早期 VSC 下换上硬胎,最终获得第七名。
在自称“相当糟糕”的排位赛表现后,皮亚斯特里 最终获得第八名,比赛中他因起步时与 Russell 接触而立即损坏了前翼。这位澳大利亚车手始终未能达到队友的速度。
Arvid Lindblad和霍肯伯格为小红牛和奥迪拿下了剩余可得的积分,排在为哈斯车队出战的第11名奥康之前。这三位车手和Colapinto一样,都在虚拟安全车期间进站——这表明这是最优策略。
在排名最后七位车手中,阿尔本是唯一一位充分利用了廉价进站机会的人——其他人都错失了良机。
当地车迷一定会对阿隆索和塞恩斯为争夺第17名而发生的碰撞感到沮丧,这次碰撞损坏了阿斯顿·马丁的前翼,而威廉姆斯车手则被罚时五秒。
Alonso最终正好以这个名次完赛,而Sainz则是四位退赛车手之一,另外三位是Sergio Perez以及前述的Stroll和Hamilton。

F1 Spanish GP: Kimi Antonelli wins again as VSC costs Lando Norris
Antonelli took his eighth victory of the season after Norris’ strong drive went awry
Kimi Antonelli prevailed in the Spanish Grand Prix, Formula 1’s first race at the Madring, as polesitter Lando Norris’ race was derailed by strategy.
Norris comfortably pulled away in the early stages of the race, but he pitted right after a virtual safety car intervention, which pegged him so far back that he lost the victory.
Scruffy start as frontrunners cut corners
Pirelli predicted a 2.31m difference between soft and medium tyres at the start, so it was interesting for second-row starters Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton to pick the red-walled compound, unlike polesitter Norris and Antonelli alongside him.
Hamilton did take a better launch but ran out of space to launch an attack into Turn 1, after which (mild) chaos ensued. Both Antonelli and Verstappen cut Turn 2, but while the Mercedes driver handed the lead back to Norris straight away (and did so again in the next sequence of corners), his Red Bull counterpart retained the advantage over the Ferrari.
Verstappen staunchly argued that he’d had to take evasive action due to Hamilton’s unruly driving, but Red Bull was adamant he should make sure to avoid a penalty, so Verstappen let Antonelli – whom he was now leading – and Hamilton by on lap four.
Seconds later, the seven-time world champion started complaining about braking issues. He started losing pace on lap five, went off the track on lap six, and retired after being repeatedly asked to pit.
On lap 10, Norris led Antonelli by five seconds, Verstappen by 11s, Charles Leclerc by 13s and George Russell by 15s; Liam Lawson was a further 15 seconds in arrears, leading the ‘midfield’.
A strategic blunder by McLaren and Norris?
Another brake problem, this time for Lance Stroll, took the Canadian out of the race on lap 13 and caused a virtual safety car intervention. Antonelli, Verstappen and Russell pitted – despite the latter starting on hard tyres, like Leclerc and Piastri – but Norris and Leclerc stayed out on mediums and hards respectively.
Race leader Norris was called in right when the VSC period ended. He could have stayed out but pitted anyway and, to compound his fate, had a slow stop. The McLaren driver emerged back on track in fifth place – 16 seconds down on Leclerc, 14 seconds away from lead pitter Antonelli.
Unsurprisingly, the Italian caught Leclerc as early as lap 18, but he didn’t launch an attack and started dropping back on lap 21. “I didn’t touch the wall, but the steering feels weird,” Antonelli told his engineers. By lap 25, he was over three seconds adrift.
Russell, who had started on hards and switched to mediums, made a second pitstop as early as lap 28 of 57 to go back to the white-walled compound. He went on to take fifth away from Lawson with an around-the-outside move on lap 35, but wasn’t convinced by his strategy. “Why did we pit? I think we could have held Norris off,” the Mercedes racer said.
Lance Stroll brought out the virtual safety car
Meanwhile, Antonelli’s deficit to Leclerc consistently hovered around three seconds, but by lap 45, the frontrunners grew closer and closer to one another. Antonelli was now right behind Leclerc and Norris was putting pressure on Verstappen for third, with those four drivers within four seconds.
Leclerc waits for a safety car – to no avail
At that stage, it was extremely clear that Ferrari was delaying Leclerc’s sole pitstop in the hope of a safety car – virtual or not – but there was none, and the Monegasque pitted on lap 48. He was given soft tyres for a nine-lap dash, but emerged in a no man’s land between the top three and fifth-placed Russell.
The end of the race was a three-way contest for victory between Antonelli, Verstappen and Norris. Albeit very close to one another, none of them was able to make anything resembling a move – until the penultimate lap, when the Red Bull racer cut the Turn 5 chicane after encountering backmarker traffic and the reigning champion unsuccessfully put him under pressure.
Antonelli eventually pulled away to take his eighth victory of the 2026 campaign from his Red Bull and McLaren rivals. Leclerc narrowly secured fourth place from Russell despite the new soft tyres on the Ferrari; Lawson took sixth for his third race back at Red Bull.
Pierre Gasly completed a mammoth 55-lap stint on hard tyres to hold seventh place for the longest time, hoping for a late neutralisation of the race, but he eventually had to pit under green flag and ended up 12th under the chequered flag.
Gasly’s Alpine team-mate Franco Colapinto finished seventh after starting on mediums and switching to hards under the early VSC.
After a qualifying performance he himself described as “pretty shocking”, Oscar Piastri ended up eighth in a race where he sustained front wing damage straight away due to contact with Russell at the start. The Australian never had his team-mate’s pace.
Arvid Lindblad and Nico Hulkenberg scored the remaining available points for Racing Bulls and Audi, ahead of 11th-placed Esteban Ocon for Haas. Those three drivers, like Colapinto, pitted under the VSC – showing this was the optimal strategy.
Among the last seven drivers in the classification, Alex Albon was the only one to make the most of a cheap pitstop – the others missed out.
Local fans will have been dismayed by a collision between Fernando Alonso and Carlos Sainz over 17th position, which damaged the Aston Martin’s front wing, while the Williams driver copped a five-second penalty.
Alonso finished in this exact position, while Sainz was one of four retirements alongside Sergio Perez and the aforementioned Stroll and Hamilton.
