Max Verstappen increased his lead in the 2024 F1 World Championship classification after the sprint race of the United States GP held in Austin this Saturday. The Dutchman won the short heat and added two more points than Norris, who staged a good comeback, but was melted down in the end by a great Carlos Sainz.
In this way, Lando Norris takes advantage of his opportunity in the following qualifying session and in the race this Sunday. He needs to learn from his mistake from ‘qualy’ to sprint, where he goes down in a curve instead of up, and he has to do everything to prevent Max from leaving the Circuit of The Americas with more margins in the absence of another 5 Grand Prix to be played.
So far, Max has taken the first blow of the weekend on Norris in the 2024 F1 World Championship classification after the sprint race of the United States GP and also scored another 8 points for a Piastri who paid dearly for his poor performance performance ‘ in the sprint on Friday.
