F1 Power Rankings - Top 5 Drivers after US Grand Prix

#2 Max Verstappen

F1 Grand Prix of Mexico - Previews

Max Verstappen is no doubt one of the best drivers on the grid right now.

Since the summer break ended in August, Verstappen has come back fresh and has done well to forget his performance in the first half of the season.

Last Sunday saw Verstappen pick up another podium finish by finishing runner-up to Kimi Raikkonen but one place ahead of Lewis Hamilton.

Verstappen had to fight for that second place in the last remaining laps when Hamilton was pushing for his position.

Instead, Hamilton went off the track under no fault of Verstappen's which would prove to be the Briton's last opportunity to overtake the flying Dutchman who really was flying that day.

Verstappen started the race in 18th to go on and finish second place in which his performance was recognised as F1's driver of the day.

You can see why this driver is tipped to one conquer a world championship.
