Formula 1 gets even crazier after the Mexican Grand Prix. If one week ago all eyes were set on Max Verstappen, now the focus has returned to McLaren... but not to Oscar Piastri, who had been leading the championship for months, but on his teammate Lando Norris, who thanks to a dominant race where he held to his pole position, and Piastri's fifth place, now leads Formula 1 standings... by only one point!
Meanwhile, Verstappen had to be content with a third place, as Charles Leclerc still wants to salvage as many points as possible for Ferrari, despite a tense duel between the two in the final laps. Leclerc reached the second place for only 0.725s! The Mexican Grand Prix also saw Ollie Bearman got a career best place, fourth position.
