Baku, November 14, AZERTAC George Russell led a Mercedes one-two from Lewis Hamilton at the Sao Paulo GP to claim the first Grand Prix win of his Formula 1 career and his team's first victory of the season, according to Sky Sports.Russell started from first after claiming the first Sprint victory of his career on Saturday, and never relinquished control of a dramatic contest at Interlagos on Sunday, which featured two Safety Car interruptions.At the restart after the first Safety Car on lap seven, Hamilton and world champion Max Verstappen collided, with the Red Bull driver sustaining damage that forced him to pit and a five-second time penalty, before he ultimately fought back to finish sixth.Hamilton dropped to eighth but brilliantly recovered to second, before a Safety Car that followed Lando Norris' retirement brought him into striking distance as the race resumed with 11 laps remaining.However, Russell stayed calm to keep Hamilton out of DRS range in the closing stages and crown a brilliant debut season with the team in which the 24-year-old leads the seven-time world champion by 23 points going into next weekend's season finale in Abu Dhabi."What an amazing feeling," Russell said. "It has been an emotional rollercoaster this season."This was a tough race, I felt in control."Lewis was super-fast and when I saw the Safety Car, I thought this is going to be a really difficult end, he put me under so much pressure. I am speechless."The victory also offers significant consolation for Mercedes in a season where their eight-year streak of constructors' titles was ended by Red Bull, and brings them within 23 points of second-placed Ferrari ahead of the final race.Moments after the Hamilton-Verstappen incident, Norris and Charles Leclerc also collided, with the Ferrari driver fighting back from the back of the field to finish fourth, behind his team-mate Carlos Sainz, who completed the podium.Verstappen, who sealed his second successive title in Japan last month with four races to spare, ignored a team order on the final lap to allow Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez through to aid the Mexican in his battle with Leclerc for second in the drivers' championship.Perez had let Verstappen through earlier and been promised his team-mate would return the favour if he was unable to gain further places, but finishing seventh leaves him tied with Leclerc on 290 points going into the final race of the season.The failure on Norris' car, which followed his team-mate Daniel Ricciardo's first-lap retirement after a collision with Haas' Kevin Magnussen, capped a hugely disappointing day for McLaren, as Fernando Alonso and Esteban Ocon finished fifth and eighth respectively to move Alpine 19 points clear in the battle for fourth in the constructors' championship.Valtteri Bottas came ninth for Alfa Romeo to seal a second successive points finish, while Sebastian Vettel took the final point for Aston Martin in the penultimate race of his career, ahead of his retirement at the end of the season.Sao Paulo Grand Prix race results are as follows:1) George Russell, Mercedes2) Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes3) Carlos Sainz, Ferrari4) Charles Leclerc, Ferrari5) Fernando Alonso, Alpine6) Max Verstappen, Red Bull7) Sergio Perez, Red Bull8) Esteban Ocon, Alpine9) Valtteri Bottas, Alfa Romeo10) Lance Stroll, Aston Martin
