United States Grand Prix Highlights
Kimi Raikkonen has won the Formula One United States Grand Prix, his first win in over 100 races. It was a very intense battle between Raikkonen of Ferrari, Max Verstappen of Red Bull and Lewis Hamilton of Mercedes. It was Raikkonen's first win in 113 races, the longest gap between race wins in F1 history.
By finishing third, and with Sebastian Vettel finishing in fourth, Hamilton was unable to secure the Drivers' Championship on Sunday. He is going for his fifth title, and wants to be just the third man ever to do so, but he failed to clinch on Sunday.
Hamilton will still have a golden opportunity to win his fifth title in the next race, as three remain on the schedule.
On the opening lap, there were multiple incidents. Vettel and Daniel Ricciardo came together, which spun Vettel out and put him near the back of the pack. Fernando Alonso and Lance Stroll connected, ending Alonso's race and making him the first casualty on Sunday. Romain Grosjean also ran into Charles Leclerc, ending the former's race while the latter had to pit, along with Stroll.
Ricciardo wound up stopping not long after that, his engine seemingly cutting out. That made him the third driver to retire from the race, a huge disappointment after he was scrapping with the top of the field.
As far as the front-runners go, Vettel would eventually make his way to near the front of the pack, while Ricciardo's stop prompted a virtual safety car. Hamilton was instructed to pit opposite Raikkonen, and though the Ferrari tried to fake the Mercedes, he remained out. Hamilton pit early, and gained about eight seconds as a result. He wound up passing Raikkonen, and after the Ferrari stopped a few laps later, Hamilton had a 17-second lead but questions about whether or not he will be doing a two-stop strategy.
Hamilton, Raikkonen, Verstappen and Bottas were the top four after the first round of pit stops. The race came down to the final laps, and Vettel helped save his title hopes — for at least another race — by passing Bottas in the penultimate lap. Hamilton got close to Verstappen, and second place would have given him the title, but in the very final laps, Verstappen managed to stay ahead.
Leclerc wound up being the fourth driver to retire from the race on Lap 33, likely due to damage sustained early in the race. It's his second consecutive retirement.
