Some Carlos facts and stats after the Mexican GP 2024:

Since Australia '24, Carlos did not finish anywhere above 3rd till USA '24, where he finished second, followed by Mexico '24, where he won. There is a 14 race gap between Australia and USA.

Nobody had won from pole in Mexico since 2016 till 2022. In 2016, it was Lewis who got pole and then won the race. In 2022, it was Max who was on pole and won the race from the same. Carlos, by winning this year, has made himself the third driver to achieve this since 2016.

Carlos made this Ferrari third win ever in Mexico. The first one was scored by Jacky Ickx in 1970 and the second one was scored by Alain Prost in 1990.

This race was the only third race to be won from pole in the previous 12 Grands Prix (Lando did it by winning in Netherlands and then in Singapore).

This was Carlos first ever podium in Mexico. He had never been on podium on this track before this.

Carlos is also the first ever native Spanish-speaker to have won in Mexico City, the largest Spanish-speaking city in the world.

This is also the first time Carlos has won more than 1 race in the same season, the first one being Australia '24.

With this race win, Ferrari moves up to 2nd place after McLaren in the Constructor's championship points table, pushing Red Bull to drop to 3rd.

This is also the first time George Russell did not crash or end up DNFing when Carlos won the race. Russell finished an exceptional 5th.

This is the second time we have had the privilege to witness a Carlando 1-2 finish, the first one being Singapore '23, where, coincidentally, Carlos won too, with Lando coming in second.

This is the third time Carlos has converted his pole position to a successful race win. First one was Silverstone '22 and the second one was Singapore '23.

I think everyone and their mother knew lestappen made it, but I am here to tell all of you that landoscar did too!!

Also, landoscar is on a tied 92, so I really feel like I contributed with how much I wrote for it
