    Hell of a race, so many questions but the main thing is there is so much that can change

    The gap has gone from 104, 94, 69, 63, 40, 36 for Max.

    Reposting from the Mexico thread. We have a spicy end to the season.

    It's hard to believe, but all 3 contenders really stepped up their games today. Oscar with a great recovery to 5th which could have been 4th, Max with a great 1 stop management to finish 3rd which could have been 2nd and Lando getting the pole, getting the start and driving off into the distance.

    This too shall pass.

    I’m still stunned that the championship has 3 left in it. Next 4 races have me giddy, and the last race is on my 40th, a Max 5th title would be an amazing gift.

    Championship is wide open, a rainy race in Brazil or a crash between two competitors could turn it on its head.

    Norris in the best position and seems to be very focused but the pressure will be ramped up now.

    Not sure if the current state of play but it's usually around this time in the season that drivers take grid penalties for swapping out engines, that could play a big part of any of the top 3 need to do that

    Is this season the best collective group of rookies in a long time? Excluding the alpine drivers who can't really perform they've all done well. Liam Lawson was unlucky in thr red bull but has settled again in the VCARB. Bortoleto has been excellent in a Sauber, and has outperformed Hulk in a number of races. Hadjar has been excellent and will justifiably be in the red bull next year. Antonelli has been impressive at times but underperforming the car - but he's super young. Ollie Bearman then has been improving and improving every race, he looks like a proper gem.
