Mexico GP fans, breathe. Between a four-wide dash into Turn 1, Haas chaos-but-make-it-iconic, and a last-minute VSC, this race was that friend who says “I’ll be there in 5” and shows up with fireworks. Norris didn’t just win; he yoinked the championship lead by one solitary point. One. Like that last fry everyone fights for.
- The One With The Lights-To-Flag Flex
Norris pulled off a pole-to-win masterclass that deserves its own Bollywood montage. The dude started P1, survived a Turn 1 mosh pit with four cars gunning for P1, then just escaped the mayhem and dipped, leaving the rest behind like “good luck, bros.” He crossed the line 30.324 seconds clear, which is basically a lap in internet years, giving McLaren their first Mexico victory since ‘89. After this weekend (Oct 26–27, 2025), Norris leads the championship by ek point over teammate Piastri—Verstappen is somewhere catching his breath in P3. Uff, kya drive!

- Chaos Kart: Turn 1 And The Stadium Mayhem
If you thought your last India Gate roundabout run was wild, wait till you see this. First lap? Four drivers, Leclerc, Hamilton, Verstappen, Norris, went side-by-side into Turn 1; Verstappen did a little off-road excursion, but Leclerc clutched it. Late-race VSC for a stranded Sainz iced two spicy duels: Verstappen/Leclerc for P2 and Piastri/Bearman for P4, putting everyone’s blood pressure through the roof. That stadium? Full telenovela mode, cheers, boos, and enough drama to power Bigg Boss for years.

Ollie Bearman, Driver Of The Day: Haas Ka Hero
Ollie Bearman channeled full underdog energy and turned Haas into the main character. Rookie debut, no less. he just threaded the chaos at the start and then defended his P4 spot against Piastri after the VSC like it was the last plate of chole bhature at a dilli wedding. Fans voted him Driver of the Day, the team went full senti on the radio, and Haas basically got what feels like a podium selfie, without actually touching the podium. Wholesome, meme-worthy, and a reminder that F1 has space for new heroes.McLaren Era Loading… Title Challenger IRL
If you ever wanted proof that McLaren is in their glow-up era, Mexico was it. Norris collected win number six of 2025, but the house divided, teammate Piastri still has seven, means it’s intra-team content gold for the rest of the season. Constructors? Ultra-spicy now, but McLaren’s aero update looked like it was coded by Tony Stark. Long story short: orange is the new black, and you’re gonna need shades for this papaya future.

– Norris getting booed on the podium, crowd brought the passion, no background dancers needed. Sports theater, max.
– Leclerc vs Verstappen for P2 was a legit photo-finish, just 0.725 seconds split them, and it was this close to “lag gaya time-out.”
– Nerd stat for your F1 quiz night: Norris hasn’t led the championship since 189 days ago; Verstappen now trails by 30+ points. That’s not a gap, it’s an internet outage.
And that’s the Mexico GP, thoda chaos, thoda class, full paisa vasool.
