Max Verstappen has won the United States GP after leading as of the first round of pitstops. Lewis Hamilton came close to a proper challenge at the very end of the race but had to settle for second, ahead of Sergio Perez who completed the podium.
9 laps older tyres and Ves still puts a purple s1 on the last lap. Not much to do against that kind of car advantage. Great drive by both of them. Such a great drive that they could not even use Perez to disturb Lewis the slightest.

Yup, great drive, well deserved. All this hype about The Device™, it was all just nonsense. Red Bull are strong as ever and will take this WDC, no problem.
Not that it makes any difference after the race but the rule of getting DRS when you already passed a lapping car needs to be revisited.It just looks silly in my opinion.
I think the two title protagonists raced extremely well today and I think the best race of Max’s career. This was one where he really made the difference.

Totally agree.
There should also be stricter rules for backmarkers getting out of the way. Both Lewis and Max get punished today because of them, but even more so Max who had them three cars at some stage.
