Lando Norris wins the São Paulo Grand Prix ahead of Max Verstappen, who finished second from 21st place on the grid. Mercedes clinches the constructors' title, according to AFP Sport.
The Briton Lando Norris (McLaren) won the São Paulo Grand Prix at the Interlagos circuit, his 14th Formula 1 victory. Max Verstappen (Red Bull), who started 21st on the grid, finished second, ahead of his teammate Isack Hadjar, according to AFP Sport.
This second place is his eighth consecutive podium, and his 10th in 11 races. The Dutchman, a four-time world champion, is regaining his best form after a season of upheaval, including the departure of Red Bull team principal Christian Horner. On Saturday, a qualifying session interrupted by rain for 90 minutes had sent him to the back of the grid.
On the same Sunday, the Mercedes team clinched the constructors' title, while its driver Kimi Antonelli has just been crowned world champion.
