Max Verstappen’s 50th Career Victory at the United States GP – Highlights and Analysis

2023-10-22 21:24:04

The United States GP saw a new victory for Max Verstappen in this 2023 season, the 15th in 18 Grands Prix, the 50th of his career! The Dutchman, less sovereign than usual, won ahead of Lewis Hamilton and Lando Norris.

Logically, Verstappen should further improve it during the last 4 Grands Prix of the season, starting with Mexico next Sunday.

Behind the triple world champion, Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) and his English compatriot Lando Norris (McLaren-Mercedes) gave everything to threaten Verstappen, but nothing worked despite brake problems on the Dutchman’s Red Bull.

The Ferrari 4e et 6e

“I was bothered throughout the race by the brakes. I didn’t have the same sensations as during the sprint, and that made my Grand Prix more difficult“, declared the absolute dominator of the season, who had flown through the sprint on Saturday.

Carlos Sainz (Ferrari) failed in 4th place ahead of Sergio Pérez (Red Bull-Honda) and pole sitter Charles Leclerc (Ferrari). The Alfa Romeo-Ferrari were not in the running on the spectacular Texan circuit. Valtteri Bottas and Guanyu Zhou finished 14th and 15th respectively.
