Max Verstappen won a dramatic race at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez. Valtteri Bottas finished 2nd and Kimi Raikkonen took the final podium spot. But the spotlight was trained on Lewis Hamilton as he won his 4th World Championship. The start was a little chaotic as Vettel, Verstappen and Hamilton tapped each other. The championship contenders came away with some damage and mounted a comeback trail. Vettel finished 4th but it wasn’t enough to keep his championship hopes alive. Here is how Twitter reacted to Lewis Hamilton 4-World Champion.
