F1 Results Today: Max Verstappen falters as Brits dominate at Mexican GP
All the times from the final practice session at the Mexican Grand Prix
F1 champion Max Verstappen struggled during FP3 at the Mexican Grand Prix as British rivals Lando Norris, Lewis Hamilton and George Russell dominated.
The three Brits finished one-two-three respectively in the session, with Norris crucially ahead of team-mate and title rival Oscar Piastri who finished FP3 in fifth.
Meanwhile, Hamilton appeared to be auditioning for this Christmas' Disney on Ice as he slid off the track on three occasions in the first 18 minutes, doing battle with his Ferrari's brakes.
Nevertheless, Hamilton filled himself with plenty of confidence ahead of qualifying and secured the second fastest time, beating former team-mate George Russell in third.
Verstappen could only manage the sixth fastest time and was unable to improve during his subsequent push laps.
