Starting from third on the grid, the Red Bull driver stole the lead at the start and then dominated the race, which was punctuated by a lengthy red flag stoppage when Kevin Magnussen crashed heavily in his Haas.

MEXICO CITY -- World champion Max Verstappen drew level with Alain Prost on 51 Formula One victories on Sunday, Oct. 29, when he claimed his record 16th triumph of the season at the Mexican Grand Prix.

Lando Norris finished a glorious fifth for McLaren after an enthralling drive through the field from 17th on the grid, ahead of George Russell in the second Mercedes. "It is just incredible," said Verstappen."To win from P3, is just amazing. I started P3 and the car was really great. It was a very strong race and now I don't know -– more wins, maybe 17 or 18!"

Sensing a chance, Perez went three abreast with Verstappen and Leclerc, but clipped the Ferrari's front wing and bounced off. After a 20-minute interlude to clear the debris, the race resumed with a standing start, which Verstappen, on hards, nailed ahead of Leclerc as Hamilton on mediums looked for a gap.
