Lewis Hamilton accepts victory at the Brazilian Grand Prix came as a welcomed surprise after seeing Max Verstappen spin out of the lead after clashing with Esteban Ocon.
But at the start of Lap 44, Verstappen collided with Ocon – as the Force India driver attempted to unlap himself at Turn 2 – which sent both drivers into a spin and hand Hamilton the lead.
Hamilton has duly paid tribute to Mercedes for securing its fifth consecutive F1 world constructors’ title.
