The 26-year-old started on pole, took the win and got the bonus point for setting the fastest lap.
Verstappen finished ahead of his team-mate Sergio Perez, who was second to give Red Bull another one-two finish, and moved the Mexican into second-place in the drivers’ championship.
Carlos Sainz, who won in Australia, continued his excellent run by finishing in third place.
Verstappen, who beat Perez by over 12 seconds, said: “It was very nice. The critical bit was the start to stay ahead and after that the car got better and better for me throughout the race.
