Kimi Antonelli will have his first F1 championship point in the United States Grand Prix.
The Mercedes driver enters the weekend 102 points clear of George Russell, and with 125 points remaining after the Austin race, he could leave as the youngest F1 world champion.
Should Antonelli win the race and Russell finish ninth or lower, and Lewis Hamilton finish fifth or lower, then Antonelli will be champion.
But do you think it will be sealed in Austin or must Antonelli wait a week longer for the Mexico City Grand Prix?
