Max Verstappen turbocharged his Formula 1 championship defense with a crucial Las Vegas Grand Prix victory this weekend – but the real plot twist came when both McLaren drivers were disqualified over technical violations! 🚩
Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri lost their hard-earned points after post-race checks revealed illegal skid block depths. The shock decision leaves Verstappen level with Piastri and just 24 points behind Norris heading into the final two races in Qatar and Abu Dhabi. 🏜️
"We’re all chasing milliseconds, but today we crossed the line," admitted a frustrated Norris, vowing to rebound next week. McLaren blamed "unpredictable porpoising" for the technical breach that cost them dearly.
With 58 points still up for grabs, the championship math is simple: Norris needs just two more points than his rivals in Qatar’s sprint-heavy weekend to claim his first title. But as Vegas proved, F1’s high-stakes drama can shift faster than a pit-stop crew! ⚡
