Max Verstappen recovered from 21st on the grid to finish second behind Lando Norris at Interlagos. After the São Paulo Grand Prix, he urged Red Bull to find out why his car became difficult to drive on slick tyres, saying it developed severe oversteer in high-speed corners. He asked the team to establish whether something had broken or there had been an aerodynamic loss.

Verstappen said his opening stint on intermediates went very well and brought him quickly into the top 10. He was much less satisfied with the two stints on soft tyres. Even after he switched back to intermediates late in the race, he said the car felt markedly different from his opening stint.

He was happy with second place, but said more had been possible if the car had been in good shape.
