Background
Track changes
Ahead of the race it was announced that a third DRS zone would be added between turns 13 and 14, down the Esplanade Drive, to aid overtaking.[2]
Championship standings before the race
Entering the round Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes lead the drivers and constructors championships by 63 and 154 points respectively. The size of their leads mean that both will still be leading their respective championships after the race regardless of the race's outcome.[3]
Entries
The drivers and teams entered were the same as those for the previous race with no additional stand-in drivers for the race or practice. Towards this race, Haas enters without the Rich Energy title sponsor due to the termination of the sponsorship agreement after the Italian Grand Prix.[4][5]
Practice
FP1
Charles Leclerc retired early into FP1 and Mercedes' Valtteri Bottas suffered a snap of oversteer, causing a crash at Turn 19. Thus, a red flag was brought out.[6] Max Verstappen led the timing charts, 0.167 seconds ahead of 2nd place Sebastian Vettel during the practice session. Nico Hulkenberg set an impressive time, landing him 6th on the timing charts, albeit 1.5 seconds off of Verstappen.[7]
FP2
Early in the session Alexander Albon lost his front wing after locking up and bumping the wall at Turn 10.[8] Lewis Hamilton gained an edge over Verstappen during the session, topping timing charts 0.184 seconds ahead of him. Leclerc managed to set a lap, though he was 1.245 seconds off of Hamilton. The two Ferrari drivers were reportedly frustrated after encountering numerous traffic incidents. Carlos Sainz managed P7, 1.3 seconds off of Hamilton.[9]
