The three-time world champion moved to the brink of a 💃fourth world title with a stunning comeback drive in💧 a thrilling and rain-affected race at Interlagos.

The Dutchman admitted he went through a “roll🦩er coaster” of em🦋otions on Sunday.

“My emotions were all over the place, from wanting to destroy the garage [after ꧒qualifying] to winning the race.😼 It has been a roller coaster,” Verstappen said. 

“It is unbelievable to win here from so far back on the grid. I was expecting to lose points in the championship. Now, I just wa🎃nt clean races. But I am not thinking about clinching the title in Vegas.”

Verstappen considers hཧis 62nd career victory to be right up there with his best given how much was at stake in the championship amid the treacherous conditions. 

“The rain came, we stayed out, which was very sketchy, and I had to just keep the car on track,” he explained. “It was undriveable in the conditions. I felജt like I was driving a boat, or a jet-ski.

“There was a lot at stake because I had to be 𝔉aware of the championship so for me this is the best one [victory]. And it is a massive boost for the team becau♉se it has been a tough period.”

Red Bull team princꦇipal Christian Horner described Verstappen’s victory as a “masterclass”.
