  "account": "McLaren's Lando Norris clinched his third win of the season at the Sao Paulo Grand Prix, outpacing Max Verstappen in the challenging wet-dry-wet race. The sixth-placed driver started on pole but surrendered the lead during the race's opening lap when new champion Kimi Antonelli took control. Norris rebounded after an early pit stop for dry tyres and capitalized on Antonelli's spin at the first corner. Verstappen secured his eighth consecutive podium with an exceptional performance in the tricky conditions, while teammate Isack Hadjar rounded out the podium in third place.",
