Max Verstappen has already secured the 2024 F1 Drivers' Championship, but the Constructors' Championship remains wide open as the series heads to Doha for the Qatar Grand Prix. Verstappen's fourth world title was clinched at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, where a fifth-place finish gave him an uncatchable lead. This victory makes him the sixth driver in F1 history to win four Drivers' World Championship titles, joining the ranks of Michael Schumacher, Lewis Hamilton, Juan Manuel Fangio, Alain Prost, and Sebastian Vettel.
However, while Verstappen celebrates his personal achievement, the battle for the Constructors' Championship is still ongoing, with only 53 points separating the top teams: Red Bull, McLaren, and Ferrari.
