Max Verstappen can become a four-time world champion in the Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Former Haas team principal Guenther Steiner pointed out a key difference between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris, emphasizing Verstappen’s tendency to push the envelope. Verstappen has the chance to secure his fourth consecutive F1 drivers’ title in Las Vegas after his impressive victory in São Paulo starting from 17th on the grid. To keep the title race alive until at least Qatar, Norris needs to outscore Verstappen by at least four points, but the advantage currently lies with Verstappen. Despite his strong season, Norris could have been in contention for the championship had he not made several critical mistakes, like struggling with poor starts from pole position. Verstappen, known for his killer instinct and ability to capitalize on opportunities, has been outperforming Norris in recent races due to his aggressive approach. Steiner highlighted that while Norris has had the strongest car for most of the season, he lacks the boldness and opportunistic mindset that Verstappen possesses.
