Following Sebastian Vettel's first victory since July's Hungarian Grand Prix, ESPN rounds up the major talking points from a dramatic race at Interlagos.
Shock: While we were treated to a tight battle between Mercedes and Ferrari at Interlagos, the absence of a Red Bull threat was a surprise. The car wasn't awful, but at no point did it look like Max Verstappen would take the fight to the top three, and in trying he forced himself onto a two-stop strategy. Red Bull has come a long way this season, but Sunday's race shows there is still plenty of work to do over the winter to ensure Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo are title contenders next season.
