Max Verstappen breaks F1 record with dominant win at Mexican Grand Prix

Max Verstappen claimed a record-breaking win at Sunday’s Mexico City Grand Prix.

The Red Bull driver converted pole to his 14th victory of the year, the most in a single season in the history of Formula One.

Michael Schumacher and Sebastian Vettel had previously won 13 in a single campaign, in 2004 and 2013 respectively.

Verstappen was simply unstoppable this weekend leading from the front and staying clear of Sir Lewis Hamilton, Sergio Perez and George Russell.

The Red Bulls and the Mercedes ran different strategies, with the Silver Arrows running the hard tyres under the belief that their opponents would lose time at the end of the race or even pit again as their medium tyres wore out.
