Formula 1 hosts its penultimate round of the 2025 season this weekend with the Qatar Grand Prix, where Lando Norris could clinch a maiden world title.
The McLaren driver simply needs to outscore team-mate Oscar Piastri and Red Bull world champion Max Verstappen by at least two points to do so - but it may not be as easy as it sounds.
That’s because last weekend the McLaren pair was disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix for excessive plank wear, which allowed winner Verstappen to reduce his deficit to Norris to 24 points.

There are also more points available at the Losail International Circuit given it is a sprint weekend, with 33 points as opposed to the usual 25 on offer.
Will there be another twist in the title battle, or does Norris have it under control? Here is all to know about the action this weekend.
