Kimi Antonelli might have sealed the drivers' title in Mexico City, but it took one race longer for Mercedes to claim their ninth Constructors' Championship title. The Silver Arrows won the teams' title in Sao Paulo, courtesy of George Russell’s fourth-place finish, with Antonelli in fifth. That was more than enough to beat Ferrari, who had both cars down the order. As such, Mercedes took their first constructors' title since 2021, and the celebrations at track were special....

P10 in Sao Paulo GP 'the maximum possible' – Hulkenberg

Nico Hulkenberg believes that P10 and the final point on offer was “the maximum possible” in the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, the Audi driver having recovered from a 10-second penalty. Hulkenberg lined up fourth on the grid for last Sunday’s 71-lap race in Brazil, the German having starred in a wet Qualifying session and promoted two spots by grid penalties for George Russell and Charles Leclerc. The Audi racer eventually slipped down the order in the Grand Prix as wet conditions at the start soon dried, and found himself battling Franco Colapinto’s Alpine on fringes of the points....

PALMER: Why Norris’ Sao Paulo victory was one of his best ever wins

Sao Paulo never fails to throw up a cracking Grand Prix and this year the outgoing champion delivered a masterful victory that I think is right up there in terms of his wins. Winning in changeable conditions is the hardest it gets because there are so many opportunities to slip up.
