They always cut to the winning driver crossing the line, wouldn't be surprised if there is a sponsorship clause involved either with the teams or the track sponsor.

How the heck did Hamilton manage to hold onto that medium, open a 9 second gap and still take the fastest lap?? Unbelievable…

Norris was lapping a similar pace to Hamilton on mediums as well. Leclerc did 32 laps on the medium on high fuel with a constant mid to high 23 pace. The medium tire wasn't bad here for some cars.

Although it is a lame track I feel like overall it's good for f1 as the turnout is really good and a Mexican fan base is huge for the sport. Perez has let everyone down

Just depends if that continues after he leaves. I remember Brazil took a massive viewership loss when Massa retired

I wonder why Piastri was off the pace. He had good track position after the red flag, at first I thought he was keeping an eye on the tyres but he never really came close to DR, whereas his teammate came back all the way from 14th.

If it wasn't for the DSQ Lewis will be ahead of Checo now wouldn't he?

Another sniff of the plank from Jo Bauer and disqualification incoming, then.
Mentioned this on the Discord, but Norris was the one bottoming out a lot in this race. You could literally hear it on the livestream.
