With this success, the Dutchman regained a big margin over Lando Norris in the general standings, now 62 points ahead of the Briton with three races remaining in the season. The McLaren driver took 6th position in Brazil even though he was the author of the pole.
Max: “I have a quick question, I appreciate you all being here but where is the British press? Do they have to run to the airport? Or do they not know where the press conference is?”

Goguenard at a press conference, the triple world champion, who is heading straight towards his fourth crown, took the opportunity to pay off the British media, too partisan of his rival for his taste. “I have a quick question, I'm glad to see you here, but where is the British press? Did they rush to the airport? Or they don't know where the press conference is taking place,” said the pilot. The mood was playful, provoking laughter from the audience but also from the two French drivers from Alpine Esteban Ocon and Pierre Gasly, both on the box at Interlagos.
