Max Verstappen drove to victory once again in Brazil to take his 17th win of the 2023 season with his Red Bull teammate crossing the line in fourth position with a photo finish between him and Fernando Alonso who just pipped him to the post.Β 

As a way of celebrating, Verstappen's pit wall played Green Green Grass by Tom Jones over the radio. The relevance of that song, in particular, is that Verstappen's father, Jos, used to play that in the car with Max when they were travelling to and from races when he was younger.Β
