Max Verstappen has kept his title hopes alive for at least one more week, following a comfortable victory in the Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Verstappen reduced his deficit to Lando Norris to 42 points, due to the McLaren driver finishing in second.

Oscar Piastri finished in fourth in Sin City, causing him to slip to 30 points behind his team-mate. It means Norris can win the title next weekend, in the Qatar Grand Prix.

To ensure Norris does not win the title in Qatar, Verstappen must outscore the Briton by 17 points, while Piastri must outscore Norris by five points.
