Whatever is going to happen next in Formula 1’s increasingly dramatic three-way fight for the world title as the Qatar Grand Prix stages the penultimate race weekend – and the final Sprint – of the 2025 season, live on Sky Sports F1.
The post-race disqualifications of McLaren’s title-chasing drivers Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri in Las Vegas have brought Max Verstappen right back into the hunt with two rounds to go after the Red Bull driver’s impressive win on the streets of Sin City.
With a still-handy advantage of 22 points over Piastri and 25 points over Verstappen after the Saturday Sprint in Qatar, Norris does have a first chance to clinch his maiden title in Sunday’s Grand Prix to avoid a final-race showdown in Abu Dhabi next week
Check out the latest championship permutations heading into Sunday’s race.

Qatar GP track – Lusail International Circuit
The 3.367-mile Lusail International Circuit joined the F1 schedule in 2021 and is one of the highest speed tracks on the calendar due to its fast, flowing corners which punish the tyres but also makes following the car in front difficult.
There is just one DRS zone on the main straight, with most of the overtakes coming at Turn One where drivers can make moves on the outside and inside.
