Given the nighttime animation of Gran Vía, Las Letras, Chueca, or Malasaña, the first race of the Madring had to be a superb bore for the Madrilenians. Not a single worthy overtaking in 57 train-like laps, reminiscent of the Monaco processions. The most notable, the only thing that livened up the drowsiness, was a virtual safety car (which most didn’t even notice) that led to a change of leadership and dethroned Lando Norris to deliver the first victory in Madring history to Kimi Antonelli, who was there ready with the rod. The Italian leaves the Spanish GP much more of a World Championship leader with his eighth victory of the year.

At a time when goals seem to be decisive in the fight to win the Ballon d’Or, Lamine Yamal is already there. The Rocafonda player led another Barça victory, the fifth in this League, with two new goals for his third consecutive double in the competition. The blaugrana genius wants it all, and his sixth goal places him at the top of the scorers’ table. Lamine’s ambition defined a brilliant start to the match, but it became very uncomfortable at the end. What seemed like a peaceful day turned into a nightmare due to Levante’s push, which showed Barça what it means to suffer. Despite falling behind by three goals, they never gave up, and two goals in the final stretch brought excitement to a match sealed by Adeyemi in added time with the fourth goal.
