Max Verstappen secured his fourth consecutive Formula One world title at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. Despite finishing fifth in the race, won by Mercedes driver George Russell, Verstappen matched the achievements of legendary drivers like Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, Juan Manuel Fangio, Sebastian Vettel, and Alain Prost.
Max Verstappen claimed a fourth consecutive Formula One world title under the lights of the Las Vegas Grand Prix on Saturday.
Norris, who needed to outscore Verstappen by three points to keep his title hopes alive, took an extra point for fastest lap, but his challenge was over. Hamilton profited from the frantic action to lead the race for a lap before the order settled with Russell leading ahead of Perez, who made an early stop, and Verstappen.
"The front right looks like it is about to go any lap," reported Norris. His title dream, like his tyres, appeared to be evaporating as McLaren slithered in pursuit, unable to find any grip.
