Also, I'm not really one to wade in on the Max/Lando dramas of late, but Lando's comment of "It's not talent, it's just luck" regarding Max getting the win is utterly baffling.
Definitely comes across as sour grapes, but Verstappen clearly benefitted from the red flag. Most drivers - Verstappen included - seem to agree that being able to change tyres is an unfair advantage.

Yeah but the rules are the same for everyone, swings & roundabouts. Russell was pretty pissed off at the team for calling him in as he wanted to stay out for the red flag. Yesterday Norris benefitted while Verstappen got screwed by a pretty questionable red flag.
Again, I'm far from a Verstappen fan, but my mind immediately went to Miami when the reporters after the race were trying to downplay Lando's win because he got lucky with the safety car.

What a race, missed it live so just caught it there, absolutely love Interlagos for this sort of stuff. Such a disappointment that it's not the season finale anymore.
Would hate to see the impact on the teams' wallets after this weekend though! I'm sure some teams are trying to flatten out their old Monaco wings to make do at this point!
Absolutely awesome performance from Max too, not really surprising given his form in similar conditions at Interlagos. Was hoping for a points swing towards Lando to keep the championship interesting but after a drive like that I think you may as well just give him the trophy now.
