SAO PAULO, Nov 15 — Seven times world champion Lewis Hamilton hunted down Max Verstappen to win the Sao Paulo Grand Prix for Mercedes on Sunday and slash his Red Bull rival’s Formula One lead to 14 points in one of the greatest drives of his career.

“This has been probably one of the best weekends, if not the best weekend, that I have experienced since ... probably in my whole career.” The rest was history as the 36-year-old took his third win at Interlagos and set a record for victory in Brazil from the lowest grid position, beating Italian Giancarlo Fisichella’s 2003 win from eighth.

Perez was then passed on lap 18, after a further virtual safety car period when the front wing on Mick Schumacher’s Haas detached and left more debris.The Dutch 24-year-old was determined not to be undercut again and jumped first for the second stop on lap 41 with Hamilton coming in three laps later and then closing in with the advantage of fresher tyres and a newer engine.
