Lando Norris, Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar finished on the podium at the Brazilian Grand Prix. Afterward, they looked back on the race in the cooldown room. The three joked around, but were also glad the race had not lasted any longer.

Verstappen had expected many more incidents on track. "Not too many incidents, few yellows" the Dutchman began. Norris agreed with him and had expected yellow flags at a few points during the race.

"I was expecting a few when we went onto slicks, maybe," Norris agreed. Hadjar then brought up the drying track. The Frenchman felt it took far too long for the track to dry completely. "This took five hours to dry." Norris agreed with Hadjar and pointed out the most difficult spot. "Turn 1 was horrible."

Then the incident between Pierre Gasly and Arvid Lindblad came on screen. Gasly went off track at Turn 1 after battling the Racing Bulls driver. "Oh my God," Verstappen began. "Nice moves there" Norris added. "Good grip there," a laughing Verstappen chimed in.

When the battle between Kimi Antonelli and Hadjar appeared on screen, Verstappen wondered when it had happened. "Is this last lap?" Hadjar shook his head. "Kimi and I were like..."

Norris and Verstappen shocked by Hamilton spin

Then the moment came where Lewis Hamilton almost lost his car, with the seven-time world champion sliding at Turn 13 while still on slicks in changing conditions. All three reacted with amazement. "That was sick, until it wasn't!" Norris exclaimed. "Wow!" said Hadjar. "Oh my God, wow," Verstappen added.

Towards the end of the race, the rain began to fall heavily, but after the race, it was pouring down. "Luckily, it was finished by then, to be honest, with that rain," Verstappen began. "One or two more laps... horrible" Norris added.

The Brit admitted that the conditions were difficult. "My inters were damaged because Turn 4 was almost dry, still" Verstappen confirmed that the conditions were tricky. "It was very weird with the rain at the end."
