This inevitably raises the question of whether Ferrari's speed this season comes at the cost of compromising the lifespan of their car's engine.
By lap 33, Qin Miao had already pulled away from Hamilton by a 3-second gap, while Hamilton was distracted dealing with Gasly behind him.
Just when the audience thought that three retirements of cars using Ferrari engines would be Ferrari's limit for this race.
Haas's Magelsen's car also encountered a failure on the track, slowing down and stopping there.
This marked the fourth Ferrari-powered car to retire from the race.
Like Sainz, Magelsen stopped at the exit of the track and retired due to a car failure rather than an accident, so there were no carbon fiber fragments left on the track, and only a yellow flag appeared.
However, despite such an opportunity, Qin Miao chose not to pit since both Qin Miao and the Mercedes strategy group believed that the pit stop was unnecessary.
