Verstappen wins Brazilian GP thriller

Max Verstappen won a thrilling Brazilian Formula One Grand Prix for Red Bull on Sunday with Pierre Gasly a surprise second for Toro Rosso.

Six-time world champion Lewis Hamilton finished a close third for Mercedes but under investigation by the stewards after a late collision with Red Bull’s Alex Albon that denied the Thai a first podium appearance.

The safety car was kept busy, with Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel and Charles Leclerc colliding to put each other out of the race, while Hamilton’s team-mate Valtteri Bottas retired with an engine problem.
