Lewis said, “This has been an amazing crowd, definitely a bit awkward this time around. Boos all day, but nonetheless I have so much love for Mexico and for the people here and what a great race event they put on this weekend”.

Lewis added that he was close to Verstappen in the first stint. Hamilton stated, “But I think the Red Bull’s just clearly too fast today, and ultimately maybe they had the better tyre strategy”. 

Hamilton’s teammate Russel suggested a similar strategy to Daniel Ricciardo, which worked wonders for the Aussie driver. Despite a 10-second penalty, the McLaren driver finished an impressive P7.
