Aston Martin gained some extremely valuable points in the constructors' standings as Fernando Alonso finally returned to the podium, while Lance Stroll placed fifth and Red Bull's Max Verstappen won at the Brazilian Grand Prix.

Sergio Perez closed in on securing P2 in the drivers' standings as he finished fourth following an incredible podium battle with Alonso, while his world championship rival Lewis Hamilton lumbered to an eighth-place finish on what was a miserable day for Mercedes.

Ferrari, though, missed a golden opportunity to significantly narrow the gap to the Silver Arrows, with Charles Leclerc failing to start the race after crashing out on the formation lap.

Carlos Sainz could only manage sixth, which means the German and Italian teams are separated by just 20 points heading into Las Vegas.
