STILLS – Norris wins in Mexico to take F1 lead from Piastri

VIDEO SHOWS: STILL PHOTOS FROM THE MEXICAN GRAND PRIX WON BY LANDO NORRIS COMPLETE SHOTLIST AND SCRIPT TO FOLLOW STORY: Lando Norris avoided early mayhem to win the Mexico City Grand Prix from pole position and take the Formula One championship lead from McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri by a single point on Sunday (October 26).  Australian Piastri, who had started the race in seventh place and 14 points clear of the Briton, finished fifth. Charles Leclerc was runner-up for Ferrari, 30.3 seconds behind Norris, while Red Bull's reigning champion Max Verstappen took his sixth successive podium in third place after a nail-biting finish just 0.7 behind the Monegasque. Oliver Bearman was fourth for Haas in a career-best result for the Briton, a late virtual safety car ending Piastri's hopes of getting past.
