Perez wins chaotic Azerbaijan GP as Verstappen crashes out (Race report)

Sergio Perez won the Azerbaijan Grand Prix after his Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen crashed out of the lead with a tyre failure. Verstappen was on course for victory when his left-rear tyre blew on the main straight with five laps to go. The race was red-flagged and restarted with a two-lap sprint. Lewis Hamilton, who was second, locked up at the first corner and went off the track, dropping to 15th. Perez held off Sebastian Vettel and Pierre Gasly to take his second career win.
