Max Verstappen was able to regain the lead at the Brazilian Grand Prix. The Dutchman had a good start and put his RB16B next to Bottas' car on the inside of the first corner. The Mercedes driver ran wide a few corners later, leaving Sergio Perez in second place.
Lewis Hamilton meanwhile is on a meteoric rise. Within five laps the seven times world champion is already third and so he already has his sights set on the podium. Valtteri Bottas let his teammate pass after a team order.
