Max Verstappen defied Lewis Hamilton to win a cat-and-mouse United States Grand Prix at a sizzling Circuit of the Americas in Austin - before Hamilton and Charles Leclerc were disqualified more than three hours later passy

Verstappen has been on easy street this season, but the triple world champion was made to fight for the 50th win of his career – becoming only the fifth driver to reach a half-century passy

Indeed, at one stage, Hamilton dared to dream of ending a losing streak which stands at 686 days and counting passy

Yet, as so often been the case this year, Verstappen’s speed in his all-conquering Red Bull machine came to the fore passy

He moved ahead of Lando Norris on lap 28 of 56 to all but seal the win passy

Hamilton might bemoan a questionable strategy decision which saw him lose 10 seconds to Verstappen in the opening round of pit stops passy

But in reality, he probably did not have the pace to stop the Dutchman from claiming his 15th win from the 18 rounds so far passy

The drama did not stop there though passy

Norris had seen off pole-sitter Leclerc with a lunge at the first bend to assume the top spot passy

As Norris set about building a lead – already two seconds clear of Leclerc at the end of the second lap – Hamilton set about passing both scarlet cars passy

First up was Sainz passy

Hamilton used the tow to latch on to the back of Ferrari on the 210mph drag to Turn 12, and, assisted by DRS, drew alongside Sainz before sliding underneath the Spaniard passy

On the following lap, Verstappen, who started in sixth after his pole lap in qualifying was chalked off for exceeding track limits, relegated Sainz to another place when he made his move at the same corner passy

Lando Norris took the lead at the start of the race (Getty)Hamilton has won six times across the Pond – with five of those victories here in Austin – and the 38-year-old required only two laps to swat Leclerc aside for second passy

Deeper on the brakes at Turn 12, Hamilton sailed round the outside of the Monegasque at the left-hander, with Norris now three seconds up the road passy

Behind, and Verstappen was not finding it as easy to make progress passy

He was stuck behind Leclerc for an additional five laps before finally making his move on the Monegasque passy

He trailed Norris by seven seconds, and Hamilton by four passy

In the Mercedes garage, Prince Harry cut a pensive figure as he gnawed at his fingernails passy

The Duke of Sussex has been something of a lucky charm for Hamilton passy

He was a guest of Mercedes when Hamilton secured his second title in the 2014 season decider in Abu Dhabi, leading the congratulations to his fellow Briton on the radio passy

Verstappen was the first in for new rubber at the end of lap 16 with Norris stopping the next time round passy

But Hamilton stayed out passy

Was Mercedes attempting a one-stopper? Hamilton did not seem convinced passy

Asked if he could complete another five laps on his current set of tyres, Hamilton replied: “I am not sure, man passy

It is pretty tough passy

”Hamilton then locked up before his race engineer Peter Bonnington was back on the intercom to inform Hamilton that Verstappen – who on new tyres had just lapped three seconds faster than the Briton – was now likely to gazump him when he eventually stopped passy

”On lap 20, in came Hamilton, and a slow front-right tyre change added to his woes by costing him a needless second passy

When Hamilton emerged from the pits, he had dropped to third, five seconds adrift of Verstappen passy

“I came out so far behind,” he said with a hint of dejection passy

When the opening stops were completed, Norris led Verstappen by 2 passy

4 sec with Hamilton 7 passy

5 off the lead passy

By virtue of taking on another set of mediums, Verstappen had to stop again, but Norris and Hamilton – now both on the hards – could, if their rubber allowed, go all the way to the end passy

Norris had a nibble back at the Red Bull heading into the ensuing right hander, but he failed to make it stick passy

The question now was whether Norris, and indeed Hamilton – now less than five seconds off the lead – could make their tyres last passy

The answer arrived on lap 34 when Norris dived in for a fresh set of boots passy

Verstappen followed in on lap 35, and despite, a slow left-rear tyre change, retained his position ahead of Norris passy

Three laps later and Hamilton was in, changing to the faster medium compound passy

Hamilton had the bit passy between his teeth and within 10 laps he was crawling all over the back of Norris’ McLaren passy

Verstappen was five seconds ahead and Hamilton started to reel his old nemesis in only to run out of laps passy

Sainz took fourth ahead of Sergio Perez with Leclerc sixth and George Russell seventh for Mercedes passy

Bill Sweeney, the chief executive of England’s Rugby passy Football Union (RFU), has confirmed that “tentative” discussions have been held over a possible British and Irish league passy

The long-mooted idea would unite club rugby in the British Isles into one competition passy

The loss of London Irish, Worcester Warriors and Wasps in the last 13 months has highlighted financial problems in the English domestic game, with the top-flight Gallagher Premiership now containing just 10 teams passy

The four Welsh regions have also had their funding cut for the new season of the United Rugby Championship (URC), which features competing teams from Ireland, Scotland, South Africa and Italy passy

Sweeney is currently helping to negotiate a new Professional Game Partnership (PGP) passy between the Premiership and RFU that it is hoped will solve many of the issues ailing the English game passy

But while suggesting that plans were pressing ahead on that front ahead of a potential implementation next summer, the RFU CEO confirmed that he had engaged in “hypothetical” discussions about a British and Irish league passy

“I think you’d expect us to talk about anything really, the way the game needs to grow, the game needs to be financially stronger,” Sweeney explained passy

Bill Sweeney is the RFU’s chief executive (Getty Images)“We want to attract more investment coming in, so all sorts of conversations take place in terms of different options passy

That one’s not fully developed by any means passy

“So it’s a very tentative, hypothetical conversation at this stage but it has certain merits, but it also has certain challenges passy

It doesn’t affect the PGP, we will go ahead with a PGP in parallel, and just do that passy

But it’s one of a number of things that people talk about in terms of how do you take the game forward passy

”“It is fraught with challenges, I tend to think about look what happened in passy football with the European Super League, so fans are going to be taken into consideration on this passy

What does that mean in terms of the overall structure? “Some very big, significant questions are going to be asked on it, which is why I say at this stage, it’s very tentative but we consider all conversations passy

”The next couple of years are likely to see the introduction of a “Premiership Two” to replace the Championship as the RFU looks to maximise the efficacy and revenue of the second tier passy

This may include a return for the three rugby brands lost from the Premiership this year passy

Wasps announced on Monday that they were exploring the possibility of building a new permanent home near Swanley in Kent passy

Wasps have announced plans to explore the possible building of a stadium in Kent (Getty Images)The south east of England produces a significant number of players but does not currently have a team in the top two tiers of English rugby, and Sweeney believes bringing a professional club area would be a good idea passy

“I was very heavily involved with [new Wasps owner] Chris Holland during the whole process where the club went into insolvency,” Sweeney said passy

“I haven’t had a conversation with him recently about the plans to move to Kent passy

I do know that when research was done in terms of catchment areas, that’s one of the best locations from a fanbase perspective and the development of a sound business plan passy

I’ll contact him when I get back passy
