The 2021 Sao Paulo Grand Prix was a masterclass in racing from Lewis Hamilton, and that's really all there is to say about the entire weekend...but we covered the rest anyway. A sprint weekend meant extra drama on and off the track, with Hamilton being DQed from Friday's qualifying for a DRS infringement, Verstappen being fined 50,000 euro for touching Hamilton's rear wing, and a highly dubious lack of investigation into an incident between the two championship contenders in Turn 4. Despite a combined total of 25 place penalties on the grid throughout the entire weekend, Hamilton was able to bring it all home for Mercedes in Brazil, heating the championship up even more as we enter the last three races of the season.

Despite a front row lockout in qualifying for Mercedes, this was a race for Red Bull with Max Verstappen taking the win and Checo in P3. For all the celebrations, Checo might as well have won the race - he's now the first Mexican to take a podium in the Mexican GP and the most decorated Mexican F1 driver in history. Will Hamilton be able to come back from a 19-point deficit before the end of the season? Let us know your thoughts:

It's official: F1 has arrived in America. Although F1 has been racing at various tracks here for years (with a break for Covid in 2020), it's clear that the popularity of Netflix' Drive to Survive has introduced a new era of F1 fandom in the United States. It was a weekend of records: COTA topped 400,000 spectators for the most attended grand prix in history - and Max Verstappen won his first US Grand Prix.

The weather in Turkey made the race a strategy nightmare. Teams were not sure what to do. Drivers were weather forecasters. Pit or no pit, slicks or inters. Some gambled and won, some…. Did not do so well. The race to the top continues to intensify as the Formula 1 season is close to the final stretch. Keep in touch:
