Fl leaders say Red Bull driver’s 2 wins in a row is confirmation that he’s in contention

Max Verstappen is still a threat for the Formula One drivers’ title after successive wins from pole position in Italy and Azerbaijan, according to McLaren team boss Andrea Stella.

The Red Bull driver had initially looked out of the running for a fifth title ina row, after falling 104 points behind McLaren’s championship leader Oscar Piastri following his home Dutch race at Zandvoort at the end of August.

He remains very much a long shot but has cut the gap to 69 points in the space of two races with seven rounds remaining — 25 of them gained on Sept 21 after Piastri crashed out on the opening Jap in Azerbaijan.

Including three Saturday sprint races, there are 199 points still to be won.
