There's a winter jacket that only comes out of the closet between November and February, and this year, while shaking it out before putting it away again, a ticket folded in four fell from an inside pocket, with a draw number printed in the corner: 4008. What a lot of people type into a search bar after a find like that — melate 4008 resultados — isn't looking for a lesson in probability; it wants an answer in thirty seconds. Here it is, no detours: Melate's Sorteo 4008 was drawn on Wednesday, January 22, 2025, with the numbers 3, 19, 21, 23, 35 and 43, plus 51 as the additional number, and a 30-million-peso jackpot that went home with no one that night.
The official record for Sorteo 4008
For anyone who just needs the hard numbers, here they are without decoration:
- Date: Wednesday, January 22, 2025
- Winning numbers: 3, 19, 21, 23, 35 and 43
- Additional number: 51
- Draw jackpot: $30,000,000 MXN
- Top prize: unclaimed; the pool rolled over to the next draw
That's the complete Melate 4008 result. If what you're after is an analysis of the draw — how unusual the combination was, how the numbers spread across the board, how overdue each one was — we already covered that in depth in the full Sorteo 4008 analysis. This article has a different job: figuring out what to do with this result, especially if you stumbled on it by accident, the way it happened with the jacket.
Why people still search for a draw more than a year old
Melate runs three draws a week, so in a year and a half several hundred four-digit draw numbers have scrolled past on screen. Nobody memorizes that full list, and yet 4008 keeps showing up in searches. The reasons tend to repeat: someone cleans out a drawer, a handbag, or — as here — a seasonal jacket, and a ticket surfaces that nobody remembered buying. Other times it's a family argument: an uncle insists he "almost got it" that Wednesday, and someone decides to check right there, phone in hand. And some people keep their own log of numbers they've played and just want to confirm it matches the official record.
None of those reasons has anything to do with planning the next ticket. Almost all of them are curiosity about something that already happened. That's fine — Melate's results archive exists precisely to settle that kind of question without anyone having to trust their own memory.
How Melate results get published and verified
Melate draws take place Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays around 9:00 PM, and the result is published within minutes of the broadcast ending. Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública, the body that operates the game, releases the draw number, the six winning numbers, the additional number, and the status of the jackpot — whether someone won the top prize or the amount rolls over. For recent draws, the fastest way to confirm them is the Melate results section, which updates after every draw.
Each number plays a different role in the prize structure: matching all six regular numbers wins the jackpot, while partial matches — including the additional number — win smaller prize tiers. If you've never been quite sure how those tiers break down, the how to play Melate guide walks through each category.
If you have a physical ticket from Sorteo 4008
Compare the draw number printed on your ticket — it should read 4008 — against the record above: the same six numbers, the same additional number, the same date. If everything matches, you have your answer without scanning anything or installing an app.
Now for the part worth stating plainly, without inventing a date we can't verify. Melate does have a deadline for claiming a prize, and that deadline is set by Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública, not by this article — you can read more about how it works in how long you have to claim a Melate prize. For Sorteo 4008, drawn on January 22, 2025, it's very likely that window has already passed, but this page can't state that as settled fact. If today — more than a year later — you found a ticket from that draw, the result it shows is still real, verifiable information; what we can't tell you for certain, without you confirming it yourself, is whether any prize it won is still collectible. Asking costs nothing; throwing away a ticket that was still worth something does. Confirm directly with Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública before you get rid of it, and if it turns out the window is still open, the step-by-step verification process is in how to check a Melate ticket.
An old ticket almost always has more than one game printed on it
The first time someone checks an overdue ticket, the mistake almost never comes from misreading the numbers — it comes from comparing them against the wrong result. A Melate ticket doesn't print just one set of numbers for Sorteo 4008; depending on how it was bought, it can also carry a Revancha play and a Revanchita play for that same draw, each with its own winning combination, different from Melate's. If your ticket has all three columns and you only check the first one against the numbers above, it's easy to conclude — wrongly — that "nothing won," when two more results are still waiting to be checked. The difference between these games, and why they share a draw number but not a winning combination, is covered in Revancha vs. Revanchita: what's the difference.
What the Sorteo 4008 numbers actually did
Without repeating the full breakdown that already exists elsewhere, it's worth noting the detail that explains why this combination catches the eye of anyone who tracks patterns: the six winning numbers — 3, 19, 21, 23, 35 and 43 — were all odd, none even, with no consecutive pair among them, and they summed to 144. That's a combination just as mathematically valid as any other — the draw doesn't "remember" past results — but visually different from what most people pick by hand, since almost nobody fills in a ticket on purpose with nothing but odd numbers.
This is where it's easy to slip into a common misunderstanding: assuming that because 4008 landed "all odd," the next draw should balance things out with more even numbers. It doesn't work that way. Each draw is an independent event, and the balls carry no memory of the one before. That idea has a name — the gambler's fallacy — and it's explained in full in the gambler's fallacy in Melate.
Two things people forget when a prize can still be claimed
The Sorteo 4008 ticket probably no longer has a prize to collect — though, as noted above, this page can't guarantee that — but the search that brought you here is nearly identical to the one someone runs with a recent ticket, still clearly within the time to collect. For that person, two details get overlooked often: taxes — the jackpot figure that gets announced and the amount a winner actually receives aren't the same number, because tax treatment applies; the details are covered in taxes on Melate prizes, and for your specific situation it's worth confirming with Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública or a qualified tax professional, not a blog post — and shared tickets, where it pays to settle in writing, before any real money is involved, who claims the prize and how it gets split.
Not the draw you were looking for?
The draw number climbs by three every week, so it's easy to mistype a digit or misremember the exact number. If what you actually wanted was today's result or a recent draw, the most direct route is still Melate results. If instead you want to browse past draws — comparing jackpots, tracking a number's streak, or just wandering through the archive — Melate's historical draws collects previous results in one place.

Where can I see the results for Melate 4008 and other draws?
For Sorteo 4008 specifically, the full record is above in this article. For recent draws or today's result, the Melate results section updates after every broadcast, so there's no need to look up each draw one by one.
Can I still claim a prize from Sorteo 4008?
Most likely not, but this page can't state that with certainty: the deadline for claiming a prize is set by Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública, not by a blog post. Since Sorteo 4008 was drawn more than a year ago, that window has very likely passed. The result remains available to look up indefinitely; to find out whether a prize is still collectible, confirm directly with Pronósticos para la Asistencia Pública rather than assuming either way.
Why doesn't my Sorteo 4008 ticket show up in the official app?
Lookup apps and portals usually default to showing only a recent window of draws, so a result from over a year ago may not surface in the standard search. That doesn't mean the draw didn't happen — the number, date, and results remain permanently on record.
