Max Verstappen took advantage of internal friction at Ferrari to claim his third victory across four grands prix, shifting ahead of both Lewis Hamilton and George Russell into second place within the Drivers’ Championship standings. Reflecting on the outcome at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez, the Dutch driver observed, “I think today we also capitalised on Ferrari’s battles with each other,” adding, “They are two No 1 drivers so they always go for it, but I think today it cost them the win.” The Red Bull driver inherited control of the contest once penalties and on-track scrambling dismantled the Italian team’s promising front-row launch. The Formula 1 campaign now turns toward South America for the Sao Paulo Grand Prix in Brazil to wrap up the triple-header sequence.
