Max Verstappen delivered a stunning performance at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, winning the race after starting from 17th position, a remarkable comeback that solidifies his status among Formula 1 legends. This victory not only inches him closer to a fourth consecutive championship title but also marks his eighth win of the season. Despite facing criticism from British media, Verstappen countered by showcasing a masterclass in wet-weather driving, which led to post-race reprimands for other frontrunners, including Lando Norris and George Russell, involved in an aborted start. The race was marked by strategic plays and elements of luck, with Norris alluding to rules that favored Verstappen during the chaotic race. Meanwhile, Alpine surprised with a double podium finish. As Verstappen celebrates, he faces contrasting opinions on his victory, with some attributing it to skill while others highlight the role of fortune.
