The best tweets from the Brazilian Grand Prix
Max Verstappen once again dominated the discussions this Sunday at Interlagos. Despite the Red Bull driver's solo performance, the thrilling end of this race ignited the crowd both on-site and on social media.
It’s the image of the Grand Prix! Authors of a splendid battle at the end of the Grand Prix, Fernando Alonso and Sergio Pérez crossed the finish line separated by just… 53 milliseconds in favor of the double world champion! Great art.

Absent from the box since the Italian Grand Prix, Sergio Pérez is facing great difficulty despite a solid race this Sunday. Here’s the proof, no less than 7 other drivers have collected more podiums than the Mexican during this period, despite being behind the wheel of the fastest car on the grid.
“Drivers who have been on the podium since Sergio Pérez’s last podium, and their number during this period:
– Max Verstappen (6)
– Lando Norris (5)
– Carlos Sainz (2)
– Oscar Piastri (2)
– Lewis Hamilton (2)
– Charles Leclerc (1)
– Fernando Alonso (1)

Max Verstappen won his 52nd career victory this Sunday, placing himself above Alain Prost and just one step below Sebastian Vettel. All of this at only 26 years old!
“Super Max! 🦁@Max33Verstappen moves up to fourth in the all-time wins list ✨#BrazilGP #F1

The unlucky one of the weekend once again is Charles Leclerc. Indeed, the Ferrari driver was forced to retire even before the formation lap, falling victim to a hydraulic leak. The season’s ending is definitely dragging on for the Monegasque.

Finished 6th, Lando Norris once again delivered an almost perfect performance in this Grand Prix, emerging as the only credible rival to Max Verstappen. His outstanding performance was duly rewarded with the honorary title of “Driver of the Day”.

Highly anticipated this weekend, the Mercedes cars have greatly disappointed, both due to their excessive tire degradation and their lack of top speed, which inspired this tweet.
