Official 2023 F1 Drivers’ and Constructors' Championship Final Standings

After Red Bull confirmed a historic one-two result in the world championship drivers' standings at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Mercedes battled in Abu Dhabi to take the runners-up spot in the contructors' championship.

It was a ferocious tactical battle at Yas Marina with P2 swaying between Mercedes and Ferrari throughout.

Despite Charles Leclerc's genius tactic of allowing Sergio Perez to take P2 and extend his lead over Russell - having incurred a five-second penalty - was not enough to keep the British driver off the podium, which sealed the Silver Arrows P2 position in the constructors' championship.

As for the drivers, with the top three of Max Verstappen, Perez and Lewis Hamilton already locked in prior to Abu Dhabi, the battle for fourth was competed by Carlos Sainz, Fernando Alonso, Charles Leclerc and Lando Norris.

And it was the Aston Martin man who managed to take fourth spot after finishing P7 - as Sainz could not finish in the points on what was a disappointing weekend for Alonso's fellow Spaniard.

Let's look at how the final race of the season impacted the final championship standings.
