Max Verstappen got third place and finished ahead of title rival Lando Norris

Charles Leclerc secured a dominant victory in the United States Grand Prix at the Circuit of the Americas, leading Ferrari to a strong podium finish. Leclerc capitalized on an early battle between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris at the opening corner, swiftly moving from fourth to first after the two rivals ran wide, allowing him to slip past on the inside.

Leclerc maintained his lead comfortably and never looked back, cruising to a convincing win. Lando Norris initially crossed the finish line in third, after recovering from an early drop to fourth in his tussle with Verstappen. However, Norris received a five-second penalty for overtaking Verstappen off the track in the closing stages, which demoted him and allowed Verstappen to claim the final podium spot.

Oscar Piastri finished in fifth place, while Lewis Hamilton’s race ended in disappointment as he was forced to retire on the third lap.
