Max Verstappen equalled Alain Prost's tally of 51 victories with an emphatic triumph at the Mexican Grand Prix - as Sergio Perez's home race came to a sorry end after just 14 seconds.
Verstappen's remarkable winning sequence, which now includes a record 16 in one season, continued in the breathless Mexico City air following two pulsating starts after Kevin Magnussen's high-speed crash resulted in a reg flag at the midway stage of Sunday's 71-lap race.
Verstappen mastered both getaways to draw alongside four-time world champion Prost, with only Lewis Hamilton (103 wins), Michael Schumacher (91) and Sebastian Vettel (53) ahead of the all-conquering Dutchman in F1 folklore.
Hamilton impressed to finish runner-up, ahead of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz. Lando Norris drove from 17th to fifth, passing George Russell with four laps remaining on a strong afternoon for the Brit, in an event that Perez will want to forget.
