The United States Grand Prix wasn’t exactly a thriller, but Kimi Antonelli made another massive statement.

Pole, victory by 13 seconds, and a championship lead so big that only something ridiculous can stop him now.

This episode includes:

• Kimi Antonelli dominating Austin for his ninth win of the season and moving within touching distance of the championship

• George Russell’s controversial five-second penalty — and why serving a penalty makes the actual pit stop look slower too

• Ferrari’s strange weekend: rapid in practice, disappointing in qualifying, then seriously quick again in the race

• Charles Leclerc passing Max Verstappen late on, Lewis Hamilton finishing fourth, and the debate over Charles’ long-term ceiling at Ferrari

• Max Verstappen and Isack Hadjar clashing over team orders as Red Bull’s reliability and engine-map problems continue

• Williams qualifying 19th and 20th, finishing 17th and 18th, and earning another Fool of the Week nomination

🏁

Kimi takes Guru of the Week, Williams continue to test David’s patience, and the championship can now be wrapped up in Mexico.

Hopefully the racing there gives us a little more to talk about.
