Japanese Grand Prix 2024 results: Final classification with penalties and DNFs applied

After an eventful race in Japan, albeit one which was delayed by half an hour thanks to an early crash, the final classifications are in.

The FIA have released their final classification after the conclusion of the Japanese Grand Prix, confirming the three unclassified drivers (crash victims Daniel Ricciardo and Alex Albon, plus the technically afflicted Zhou Guanyu) and the penalties handed out (there weren't any).

Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez were back with a bang after disappointment in Australia two weeks ago, finishing first and second – and were never really challenged.
