WATCH: The best onboards from the start of the Spanish Grand Prix

Charles Leclerc had a great getaway from pole at the start of the Spanish Grand Prix, but while it was plain sailing for the Ferrari man on the first lap, the same couldn’t be said for those behind.
Carlos Sainz and Valtteri Bottas were the two drivers to get bogged down off the line, but while they both eventually recovered, the big losers were Kevin Magnussen and Lewis Hamilton. Those two tangled, both picking up punctures and dropping to the back of the field. Meanwhile, George Russell and Sergio Perez also had contact – but it proved to be minor, much to their collective relief.
Twenty cars hurtling flat-out down to the first corner will always cause a bottleneck, so hit play on the video above to see who got a great start in Barcelona and who lost out.
