Verstappen Weathers the Storm to Complete the Impossible Mission

Formula For Success

Could Verstappen's comeback victory in Brazil be the greatest in F1 history? Does Lando Norris possess the mental toughness required to become a world champion? Is Alpine now a serious contender for a top spot on the grid next season? This week, DC and EJ review the dramatic events at the Brazilian Grand Prix, where Max Verstappen delivered a potentially title-winning performance after starting in 17th place.

Plus, they were not surprised that Flávio Briatore's Alpine team secured a double podium finish even earlier than he had predicted for 2026 during the podcast in August.

Note: This episode was recorded prior to Sauber’s announcement that Valtteri Bottas and Zhou Guanyu will not be returning to the team in 2025.
