Super Max… by all means!

Max Verstappen is kidding! With a terrible demarcation in the final but also excellent tactics from Red Bullthe Dutch driver celebrated another victory this season after also winning the US Grand Prix!

He was ahead for a long time Hamiltonbut 6 laps before the finale the world champion comfortably passed him and showed Mercedes that they are far behind in speed (and tactics) this year.

Verstappen caught the record of Schumacher (2004) and Vettel (2013) for the most wins in a season (13) and is expected to break it! Leclerc completed the podium, with Saint, who had taken pole position in qualifying, retiring early from the Grand Prix after a collision, while Stroll, Bottas also did not finish the race.

Verstappen, however, had made sure to show his appetite from the beginning. He got off to a great start, took the lead and set a great pace around the Austin circuit, leaving the rest behind him to chase him. The very slow pit-stop made by his team didn’t alienate him, either, which made sure to pass him the hard tire. They were looking… in front of Red Bull, after seeing their strategy work and the Dutchman steadily closing the gap on Lewis Hamilton, who was looking for a victory and prestige. But when, in the last ten laps, Verstappen dropped the gap to under a second and took DRS, then Mercedes’ inferior dynamics showed, with Red Bull making a… joke of another Grand Prix.

With Leclerc climbing third on the podium, Perez, Russell followed for the top five and Norris, Alonso, Vettel, Magnussen, Tsunoda completing the first and rated ten.
