F1 NATION: How Max Verstappen drove ‘like Senna and Schumacher’ in ‘hall of fame’ victory in Sao Paulo
In this week’s episode of our F1 Nation podcast, Tom Clarkson is joined by F1 TV commentator Alex Jacques and Brazilian former F1 driver Ricardo Rosset to dissect a chaotic Sao Paulo Grand Prix, as Max Verstappen produced a masterclass in the rain to climb from P17 and claim his first win in 11 races.
Was this the greatest of Verstappen’s 62 race wins? How did he make his way through the grid in such treacherous conditions? Why was title rival Lando Norris unable to convert pole position into victory? And what does this mean for the drivers’ World Championship, with just three races and one F1 Sprint left in 2024?
Alpine team mates Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly explain why their sensational double podium is so special to them and how they as drivers made the difference in wet weather, while Team Principal Oliver Oakes joins the pod to discuss what this result means for Alpine after one of their most challenging seasons in F1.
