Fernando Alonso competed with the Qatar-spec Aston Martin after the team brought a slew of upgrades to the U.S. Grand Prix.
AUSTIN, Texas — Max Verstappen won the United States Grand Prix despite being fairly vocal about the brakes throughout the race. Here’s what you need to know: Lando Norris appeared to be in contention for his first F1 win, but in the final stretch, Lewis Hamilton began reeling the McLaren in while Verstappen zipped ahead, creating a sizable gap. By lap 48, Norris and Hamilton began fighting side-by-side. Esteban Ocon and Oscar Piastri retired fairly early.
“That was just quite a big factor, because I never really had a lot of confidence to be consistent under braking.” Verstappen later said he “just couldn’t feel the brakes,” easily locking up. It led to moments on the radio when he made it very clear he didn’t want anyone speaking to him while he was braking. Despite talking about the brakes at different moments on the radio, Verstappen didn’t really feel that he would lose the race once he snagged the lead and created a decent enough gap.
