The hot, humid and heady atmosphere of Sanya, on the Chinese island of Hainan was mirrored by some lairy action on the track as Jake Dennis claimed his second win of the season for Andretti.

While Dennis celebrated, the title chasing quartet of Mitch Evans, Oliver Rowland, Pascal Wehrlein and Edoardo Mortara came away with not a point between them as shunts and bizarre fire extinguisher activations accounted for the top four in the points table.

Pepe Marti took an FE career best second place but his CUPRA Kiro teammate blotted his copybook again when he smashed in to the back of Evans’ Jaguar just before a bizarre red flag incident that those two combatants were also involved in.

As well as the red flag query, some of the penalties that were dished out are also unpacked, as is the new 2026-27 calendar that will include new tracks at Zandvoort, Brands Hatch and COTA.
