Max Verstappen can win a fourth consecutive F1 drivers' title at the upcoming Las Vegas Grand Prix, with races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi to follow. 

The three-time world champion's recovery from 17th on the grid to win in São Paulo saw him move 62 points clear of Lando Norris. 

If Norris does not score at least four points more than Verstappen in Sin City, the F1 drivers' title will be over for another year. 

Very rarely does the F1 drivers' title go down to the wire in the season finale, so should a controversial format be reintroduced to make this happen in the future?

The 2014 F1 season finale in Abu Dhabi was a double points race, with it being the only time in the sport's history where double points were awarded. 

Should double points be reintroduced to increase the chances of both titles being decided in the season finale in the future, especially given the length of the F1 calendar these days?
