Max Verstappen, third in the Mexico City GP: "It was very hectic at the beginning, we had a very good start. I was on the outside, but three-four wide, bottoming out, I almost crashed. It was about surviving the first stint and once we put on the softs, we were a bit more competitive.
"To be fighting for P2 with everything that happened in the first laps, is a very strong race. You win some, you lose some - sometimes the safety car works for you, sometimes it doesn't."

Charles Leclerc, second in the Mexico City GP: "I'm very happy with this weekend. We did well in Austin but we didn't know what to expect so to be on the podium is a surprise. I was quite happy about the VSC at the end. My tyres were completely gone and I could see Max coming on the softer tyre. "

Lando Norris, winner of the Mexico City Grand Prix: "Thank you guys, what a race. I could keep focused, and my eyes forward. A pretty straightforward race for me, which is what I was after. Good start, good launch. I just stayed relaxed, and got a much better launch than the guys around. My first win here at Mexico, and a beautiful one to celebrate in the stadium."

I believe with that, Norris now leads the championship by one point. That was a win he really needed, especially as Verstappen recovered to third in that one.
Still, Verstappen has closed the gap to the top by four points.
