16 pts in the drivers championship between the top 3. Norris has 12 on Verstappen, so he needs to take a P2 if Verstappen wins or P3 if Piastri wins in Abu Dhabi. Going to be close one… #F1 #QatarGP

Awesome P3 for Sainz, cool to see him get a second podium after being kicked from a seat where Hamilton has delivered nothing the entire season. #F1 #QatarGP

Norris didn’t have the pace to claw back from P5, but whatever Antonelli did sure was helpful. If only they had the capability to show replays in 2025… #F1 #QatarGP

Q2 finishes on wets. Not as crazy as Q1. Inters for Q3! #F1 #LasVegasGP

GP complete. The race for P2 was the most excitement there after the early race festivities. Verstappen is looking so strong now. Piastri has been asleep for a few races now. 5 more races and the driver's championship heats up! #F1 #USGP

Verstappen. Norris. Leclerc. #F1 #USGP

Last lap. Norris could eat a 5 second penalty now and still take P2. Alpine has some silly conversations, trying to keep Colapinto behind the older tires of Gasly with Bortoleto behind. #F1 #USGP

Norris takes it back in T12! Ferrari radio says to keep the pressure on, but that is a mighty challenge. McLaren really coached Norris through this one, I need to remember not to listen to Norris' thoughts over the radio... #F1 #USGP

Norris still very close and Leclerc is not looking nearly as planted now. #F1 #USGP

Lunge into P1 but quickly recovered by Leclerc! #F1 #USGP

Leclerc has to hang on for 6 laps to keep P2. Norris is looking quite quick right now. #F1 #USGP

Hard to know what Mercdes is going to do any given race. I do not understand their performance swings... and I kind of think they don't either. #F1 #USGP

Norris starts his final charge after cooling the tires. We'll see how that goes. Expected more out of Mercedes (esp Russell). Surprising to see Tsunoda up in P7, up from his P13 start. #F1 #USGP

Leclerc is very good at saving and battery deployment. Norris is complaining about degredation and is back an extra 2 seconds nearly. Verstappen complaining about sliding too. 13 more laps, but I think we might already have our podium decided with these softs falling off... #F1 #USGP

Norris is now back to Leclerc. He needs to make the pass without any track limits violation in order to take P2, having received the black and white for three previous violations. #F1 #USGP

Bearman takes a spin attempting to pass Tsunoda for P7 into a kink. Down to P9 now. #F1 #USGP

Verstappen pits and get to continue his leisurely drive to the top of the podium. #F1 #USGP

McLaren doesn't completely ruin the pit stop for Norris (requesting box after a lockup), who must now chase down Leclerc again, this time he is on softs while Leclerc is on the mediums. #F1 #USGP

Piastri in for a set of soft tires peeling in to avoid Russell getting into DRS range. #F1 #USGP

An aside while we question everyone's (but mostly Ferrari's) pit strategy... These turn numbers are silly. They really want 20 turns, I guess, but 16 and 17 are definietly not two turns (They've done this with 15/16 before!). I hate F1 corner numbering!
The F1 turn numbering (1-20) and DRS zones for Circuit of the Americas (COTA) for the United States Grand Prix. Another COTA turn numbering with changes in the numbering for 15-17.

That took a while... Norris finally does it after going out of track limits thrice. P2 is finally Norris' and he is 11 seconds behind Verstappen. Verstappen may now be starting the Mexican GP. #F1 #USGP

Hamilton is back on screen and Piastri is way back in the distance. #F1 #USGP

Norris is just poking at Leclerc limply. Verstappen now over 6 seconds ahead locking that P1 in... #F1 #USGP
