Max Verstappen has claimed the 2024 F1 drivers’ title after finishing above closest challenger Lando Norris at the Las Vegas Grand Prix. The Red Bull driver, who started one spot ahead of Norris in fifth, finished the 50-lap race in the same position, while the McLaren driver came home in sixth.

Lewis Hamilton drove from 10th to second behind his Mercedes teammate as Verstappen finished fifth ahead of Lando Norris in sixth.

Is Max Verstappen the greatest F1 driver of all time? It is a question which can legitimately be asked in the wake of his fourth consecutive world title, which he delivered beneath the blinking neon lights of Sin City on Saturday night.
