Mercedes dominated the entire Las Vegas weekend and fielded the strongest car to enable George Russell to take his third career victory, ahead of Lewis Hamilton who recovered from 10th position. Carlos Sainz finished in third as 5th for Verstappen was enough for his 4th World Championship.
Merc is a great race car today. 15s lead with 5 laps to go and no SC etc. 3 to 4 tenth plus delta in race pace. Russell seems to be managing with no fastest lap attempts. Good race so far.
