Formula 1 heads to Nevada this weekend for the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix, returning to Clark County to kick off the final three races of the year.

The championship battle has been all but won by Max Verstappen, after he stormed to victory at the Brazilian GP, crushing the hopes of title rival Lando Norris.

While Norris may have lost sight of the title, his team will also be hoping that their drivers can secure maximum points, McLaren now within touching distance of their first championship as a team since 1998.

After winning two of the three past races, Ferrari have crept up behind McLaren, just 36 points behind, but still ahead of reigning champions Red Bull.
