Max Verstappen Went From 16th To 3rd At The End Of The Brazil GP And It Was Awesome
After multiple red flags and numerous safety cars at today’ rain-hit Brazilian Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton took victory ahead of Nico Rosberg and Max Verstappen.

He benefited from several drivers ahead pitting shortly after emerging from the pit land, but still had lots of work to do, cutting through the field and claiming a sensational third.
Here are some highlights from what is easily the drive of the season:
