Only two more races to go and then Max can finally chill out with his trophy for the holidays.
Next track is in almost two weeks away on the nice backdrop of Brazil.
Then the final one is Abu Dhabi where there was controversy between Verstappen and Hamilton of who actually won the race.
Good there will be no drama giving anymore material for netflix this year. As the title has been settled.
Just maybe Ricciardo trying to show he still has that drive that made him a great driver.
Did you see how many places he went up from that roll up by Tsunoda on his car? He was on fire in the last 10 laps of the race.

Max's next victory is generally not surprising.
I actually get the impression that the teams that performed worse than they could due to the wrong choice of rubber for the race, in general, did it intentionally. Of course, I am far from the idea that contractual races are also practiced in F1, but all the same, such decisions certainly raise questions. To which there are no logical answers.
And of course the speed of Red Bull cars is impressive.
I think it is very comfortable for Verstappen to compete in such a car.
It's a pity for Leclerc - at the end of the season, he somehow upsets the fans.

Checo I expect to make it to the podium for atleast one Red Bull car will make it up there.
Checo's car had electrical and DRS issues.
This can be meaning anything, from recovery and ending in top 3 to even abandoning. I hope for a home win from him, he would deserve that (but as I said, his chances are far from great).
We had an electrical issue throughout quali, and with DRS we were struggling and so on. It was important to make sure we got everything right, but I was pretty much blind through quali – I had no reference lap time, I had no information on my brake balance or times, so it was just a mess
I had him to get the fastest lap and had it almost all race long, until Russell decided to change tires and take it in the final lap.
Could of made up some spots in the pool but alas was not ment to be.
Congratulations to Max Verstappen for breaking the record for the most races won in a season at 14.
Passing Vettel and Michael Schumacher.

Max can break another record today right ? He is currently chasing Vettel and Schumi record for most wins in 1 season of F1. If he somehow wins today , which I found it hard to believe , he will enter in history at such a young age but then again , Ferrari and Mercedes won't let this happen so easily.
Odds are also with Max but appeal odds on Mercedes as well.

Verstappen has 13 wins now just as Vettel and Schumacher's records. He needs only one more win to have the record by himself. He can still even get 16 wins as there are three races left now.
I think that Verstappen will be the winner of the Mexico GP and he will break this record also. He is still the fastest driver on the grid now. In the qualifying session, Mercedes drivers were really impressive though. Russell could have even got the pole position if he didn't make a simple mistakes while finishing his last lap attempt. However it is doubtful if any of Mercedes drivers can compete with Verstappen during the race. Red Bull have the most durable and fastest car and Verstappen is still very ambitious.

Verstappen took pole for the race in Mexico.
Hamilton and Russell both did well in qualifying so expect them to make moves in the grid for tomorrow very early.
Leclerc was 7th so he was disappointing in the pre-races.

So while I am hoping the same for Checo, I don't think he has notable chance to win.
I also do not think Max will stop pushing. Or maybe we will see 'team orders'... But I do not think there will be any situation like that just to please the stands.
And one of last chances for Russel to show he is faster than Hamilton this year. Maybe his salary will be adjusted

Mexico is looking spicy with the odds from what I was looking at just now.
Verstappen 1.61x and Perez is actually above Hamilton.
I am hoping for a Perez win this weekend and yes to make a big arrival at his home country.

Yeah, just while this means extra pressure for Checo, Max is completely unimpressed of this kind of stuff (and will not favor his team mate).
Ferrari and the Mercs will have their own battle to fight and this can be a problem too, especially as the Mercs were performing very good last week-end.
So while I am hoping the same for Checo, I don't think he has notable chance to win.

And another interesting info:

Sauber to become Audi works F1 team from 2026
The German manufacturer announced in August that they will join F1 as a power unit supplier, when new regulations that feature increased electrical power and 100% sustainable fuels will be introduced in four years.
Looks like new era attracts new competitors. I wonder what will be the answer from old companies like Williams or McLaren.
They might take power units/engine parts from Mercedes or Red Bull. Who really knows but I know Williams and McLaren aren't going anywhere. Just as long as their owners don't go belly up and have to sell off to another entrant into the F1 circuit.https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.breaking-sauber-to-become-audi-works-f1-team-from-2026.6EMJQ2LlvshgpCXdCR9xJl.html

It was definitely a good race to watch for all the changing of hands and all the unexpected slow stops and many other things like crashes. It was weird for me because I wasn't sure if I was gonna win or not for a long time, I wagered on Max because... well obvious reasons and I didn't really know if he would get it or not. This is why I watched it very stressfully but at the end he still got it.
I know he started very well but after that slow pit stop I thought he lost it, but turns out he still had it in him to fight back and get it, and that gave me a small win. Wasn't a huge win, didn't had too much odds, but still a win is a win and Max never really disappoints.

I've seen the race one day later again (rerun). It was great to watch, although I felt sorry for both Sainz and Alonso.
Vettel leading the race for a while was a great goodbye prize imho.
The late penalty Alonso got was unfairly big. Russell's penalty should have been at least that big.
But overall it was an unexpectedly great race. A lot of interesting points, including the Max / Charles and Max / Lewis duels, but also for example Albon / Tsunoda. Somehow with so many interesting points Leclerc's many takeover (from place 12 iirc up to 3) went rather unnoticed.
I'm surprised of so few comments, I think that after the champion was announced people may have lost their interest. I advise people find a copy of the race or a rerun and watch that, if they're F1 fans.

An interesting intrigue came out at a race in the USA due to a defective wrench. In general, one cannot even imagine where such unexpected and filthy "surprises" can be.
Nevertheless, Max and the team worked out the pif stop and tire change so competently that I am simply delighted with his talents. Everyone unanimously notes not only his speed, but also the tactics of the race. Definitely, he's a good guy.
Generally Red Bull is the fastest car.
The team has balanced it perfectly this season.

Red bull take the Constructor's championship of the season with the race in Austin this weekend.
It didn't look like Verstappen was going to win as Hamilton was leading for alot of laps during the final few laps and Max's team messing up during the tire change and had to use another bolt gun when fitting his new tire. He lost a few places during this mishap and was behind Leclerc and Perez. I think the only reason why he got ahead of Lewis was that the Mercedes was on older tires because it had pace. Just not during the turns to keep the Dutchman at bay.
What a race and a well deserved victory for the whole Red Bull team as they lost one of their founders just the day before.

But lets see how far its Verstappen of the rest of the field.
What disgrace its Ferrari, they cant compete no matter what its in front of they. For years agains Mercedes and now against Red Bull.
I dont know how much i want to see this race. Maybe 4/10

One team will be letting one of those drivers go for De Vries, that has been settled for a while now.
It just hasn't been disclosed who yet. So expect those drivers to be racing for their jobs.
Also this track can be seen for a track similar for the new track coming in Vegas both being in the States and similar weather conditions.
