- Verstappen also won the Saturday sprint from pole at Circuit of the Americas, while McLaren team drivers Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris collided and retired.

- Carlos Sainz collided with Williams and retired after trying to overtake for seventh, prompting stewards to hand him a five-place grid penalty and two penalty points for the Mexican Grand Prix.
