Mercedes secured their first Formula 1 constructors' title since 2021 at the São Paulo Grand Prix in Brazil, prompting praise from newly crowned world champion Kimi Antonelli. With Antonelli finishing fifth and teammate George Russell taking fourth at Interlagos, the team accumulated enough points to clinch their first drivers' and constructors' championship double since 2020.
Antonelli dedicated the triumph to the 2,500 personnel working across Mercedes' facilities in Brackley and Brixworth, emphasizing their collective effort throughout his second F1 season. Meanwhile, McLaren's Lando Norris won the race, his team's third victory of the season, but noted McLaren still requires greater consistency to mount a full championship challenge.
