McLaren's Lando Norris wins Formula 1's Sao Paulo Grand Prix, Mercedes clinches constructors' title | Arkansas Democrat Gazette
Lando Norris won Sunday’s rainy Sao Paulo Grand Prix at Interlagos from pole, with Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar completing the podium. Norris, the 2025 F1 champion, led 47 of 71 laps, briefly losing the front to new drivers’ champion Kimi Antonelli before regaining it after Antonelli spun. Norris’ celebration went wrong when the Champagne bottle shattered in his hands. Mercedes meanwhile clinched its ninth constructors’ title—its first since 2021—after accumulating 652 points, with Ferrari on 510 and unable to catch. Antonelli finished fifth, one place ahead of teammate George Russell? No—Russell was sixth; article says Antonelli fifth, Russell behind. Ferrari also lost two points after Charles Leclerc received a 5-second penalty for a clash with Liam Lawson. Mercedes secure the title regardless, as Hamilton finished ninth.
