With three races remaining and three drivers in contention, the 2025 World Drivers&#8217; Championship is red hot. After 21 exciting rounds, the season is heading towards an electrifying finish where everything is at stake.\n\nLando Norris, Oscar Piastri, and Max Verstappen are the protagonists vying for the title in this thrilling season finale. But, who will take the victory?\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Championship Fight<\/h2>\n\n\nAfter a perfect weekend in S\u00e3o Paulo, Norris leads with a 24-point advantage over his McLaren teammate, Piastri. Both young drivers are seeking their first F1 crown.\n\nVerstappen, the current world champion of Red Bull, is 25 points away. George Russell, of Mercedes, is in fourth position, but his mathematical chances of winning the title are minimal.\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Form Moment<\/h2>\n\n\nAlthough Verstappen achieved three victories in four races before the Mexico City Grand Prix, Norris is undoubtedly the driver in the best form currently.\n\nNorris, after overcoming some difficulties with the McLaren car at the beginning of the season, has achieved pole position and victory in consecutive races, including a victory in the Interlagos Sprint. This has transformed him from chaser to chased.\n\nOn the other hand, Piastri&#8217;s performance has declined. The Australian was the big favorite after winning the Dutch Grand Prix, but he hasn&#8217;t managed to get to the top of the podium since then, nor has he even achieved a podium finish in the last four races.\n\nThis has spurred Norris, who is now in a privileged position in the fight for the championship.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a1.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F1111%2Fr1573999_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>MOHD RASFAN\/AFP via Getty Images<\/em>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Could the Title Be Decided?<\/h2>\n\n\nIn the three remaining races (with 25 points for the winner) and a Sprint (eight points) there is a maximum of 83 points available. After the next race in Las Vegas, there will still be 58 points at stake.\n\nThis means that Norris, even with a perfect weekend and without his rivals scoring points, would not be able to secure the championship in Las Vegas, as he could only extend his lead to a maximum of 49 points.\n\nTherefore, the title could be decided in Qatar, where a driver would need to have an advantage of at least 26 points over the second-placed competitor.\n\nNorris could triumph with four second places in the races and the Sprint, while Piastri and, especially, Verstappen, hope that the Briton has problems in some race.\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/a.espncdn.com\/combiner\/i?img=%2Fphoto%2F2025%2F0423%2Fr1482859_1296x729_16%2D9.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\"><\/figure>\n\n\n<em>The Las Vegas GP is the next stop for Norris, Piastri and Verstappen.<\/em>\n\n<em>Clive Mason &#8211; Formula 1\/Formula 1 via Getty Images<\/em>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upcoming Races<\/h2>\n\n\n<strong>LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX<\/strong>\n\nPoints at stake: 25\n\n\n<p>Schedules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Friday, November 21: Practice 1 00:30-01:30 GMT, Practice 2 04:00-05:00 GMT<\/li><li>Saturday, November 22: Practice 3 00:30-01:30 GMT, Qualifying: 04:00-05:00 GMT<\/li><li>Sunday, November 23: Race 04:00<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<p><strong>QATAR GRAND PRIX<\/strong><\/p>\n\nPoints at stake: 33\n\n\n<p>Schedules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Friday, November 28: Practice 1 13:30-14:30 GMT, Sprint Qualifying 17:30-18:14 GMT<\/li><li>Saturday, November 29: Sprint 14:00-15-00 GMT, Qualifying 18:00-19:00 GMT GMT<\/li><li>Sunday, November 30: Race 16:00 GMT<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n<strong>ABU DHABI GRAND PRIX<\/strong>\n\nPoints at stake: 25\n\n\n<p>Schedules:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Friday, December 5: Practice 1 09:30-10:30 GMT, Practice 2 13:00-14:00 GMT<\/li><li>Saturday, December 6: Practice 3 10:30-11:30 GMT, Qualifying: 14:00-15:00 GMT<\/li><li>Sunday, December 7: Race 13:00<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Important Aspects<\/h2>\n\n\nIn addition to the fight for the drivers&#8217; title, with the constructors&#8217; championship already secured by McLaren, the most fascinating battle in this final triple-header of races is between Mercedes, Red Bull and Ferrari.\n\nThese three teams are competing for second place in the team standings, crucial for the economic prizes and the boost for next season. The final position in the championship also affects the wind tunnel time that is allowed to work on next season&#8217;s car.\n\nAfter a good weekend in S\u00e3o Paulo, Mercedes is in second place with 398 points, with Red Bull, powered by Verstappen, 30 points behind.\n\nAfter a disastrous double retirement, Ferrari is fourth with 362 points.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The excitement of Formula 1 reaches its peak!
