Verstappen vs Norris: the fight folded in Las Vegas?
It will take a small miracle for Lando Norris to hope to win his first world title in Formula 1 this season. Do not see there any bias towards the current leader of the championship but the reality of the figures unfortunately does not plead in favor of the McLaren driver three events from the end of this exciting 2024 season.
Since the return of summer break, end of August, until the day before the Brazilian Grand Prix, Norris managed to score more points than Verstappen in five of the last six races, despite the recent upsurge of the Ferraris and the consistency of the Red Bull driver at the wheel of a RB20 always more restive.
In Sao Paulo, his authoritarian victory in the Sprint coupled with a seventh pole position in 2024 augured another weekend in good form for Norris, before the weather transformed the end of his Grand Prix into slow agony.
Inversely, Verstappen played with precarious grip to pocket the maximum number of points, 26 with the best lapfilled with the five units pocketed during the Sprint. Result of the races: sound capital point grew from 362 to 393, with a lead going from 47 to 62 units the McLaren driver.
If the task will be tough for the Pilots, the suspense remains on the side of the provisional classification of Builders. 36 points only separate McLaren et Ferrari, with Red Bull in third position at 13 units.
