And four for Max Verstappen! The Dutchman finished 5e of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Sunday November 24, enough to become Formula 1 world champion for the fourth consecutive year. The Red Bull driver just had to finish ahead of Lando Norris (McLaren) to be crowned: that's what he did since the Briton finished 6e.
Five months after his success in Austria, his compatriot George Russell (Mercedes) scored a third career victory, after having managed the Sunday race perfectly, starting from pole position. The German team even scored a double as Lewis Hamilton positioned himself on the second step of the podium, ahead of Carlos Sainz (Ferrari).
