Max Verstappen Wins 4th Consecutive F1 Drivers Championship
Laurence Edmondson, writing for ESPN:
It was somehow fitting that Max Verstappen clinched this season’s title with a fifth-place finish in Las Vegas. A podium appearance may have been a more satisfying way to crown Formula 1’s latest four-time world champion, but this was a title campaign characterised by guts as much as it was by glory.
It was also a title campaign with a very different feeling to his previous three.
For the second year in a row the Las Vegas GP was a lot of fun. This is turning out to be the best street course on the calendar.
The previous race in Brazil really sealed this championship, but the Vegas result made it official. Congrats to Max, he earned it this year without having the fastest car on the grid.
Alex Kalinauckas has a great breakdown of 10 moments that led to Verstappen’s title this year.
