Verstappen isn't relaxing yet in title fight: "Long way to go"

"To come here having Checo as a team-mate coming in Mexico is amazing but even before and that the fans have been incredible," Verstappen commented after his win.

The most important moment of Sunday was the start. "It was nice three wide and then you just try and brake as late as you can. Kept it on track and went from third to first and I could just focus on my race," he added.

Verstappen is now 19 points ahead in the world championship, but he doesn't want to relax yet. There are still four very important Grands Prix to go. "Still a long way to go but it's looking good. It can still turn around quickly."
