Vanthoor was leading the race on the lap before the red flag which meant the driver who crashed was awarded the win. Here’s what he said after the race-

“I don’t really know if I deserved it in a way, as I crashed and made a mistake and I am still a winner – which is very awkward. But I don’t really know what to say. It would have been a better show for everybody without the crash and a better victory, but I don’t know what to think about it.”
