One more podium for Norris, and he will be World Champion. But a fourth and a Verstappen win? The title comes back to Max for at least one more season.

Max Verstappen wins the Qatar Grand Prix.

Norris is trying to get by Sainz, as Verstappen wins the race.

Norris gets by Antonelli to take fourth! Antonelli went wide!

Last lap. Looks like Hadjar will make it safely back to pit road.

Two laps to go.

Alonso gets by Hadjar for seventh. Hadjar down to ninth... Hadjar is going very slow.

Norris just can't get by Antonelli. He can't get by the Mercedes for fourth.

Even if Antonelli loses this battle, there's no doubt that the young Italian has come to his own this fall. He's defended well against Norris a week after riding a 48 lap hard tire stint to a podium in Las Vegas.

Norris and Antonelli are now dueling for fourth - and two more championship points.

Piastri has only gained four seconds in 7 laps. Not good enough at all to catch Verstappen, let alone pass him.

Note that Mercedes has still not clinched second in WCC, so there is zero incentive for Antonelli to hand Norris this fourth place.

A 10 point advantage on Verstappen would mean a win by Max and a third place by Norris next week would mean Max Verstappen is champion. Just an incredible turn of events.

As the championship stands right now, Norris would take just a 10 point lead on Verstappen entering Abu Dhabi. Piastri 14 points behind Norris.

Verstappen has caught up to Norris. Piastri comes out with 17.4s behind Verstappen but with 10 lap fresher hard tires.

Norris has to be careful here. Verstappen is right behind him, which doesn't really matter. What matters is that Norris isn't currently covering off Antonelli or Sainz.
