Norris extended his lead at the top of the standings to 24 points over McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri following a dominant victory at Sunday's Sao Paulo Grand Prix.

Verstappen fought back from a pit-lane start to claim a brilliant third in Interlagos, and restrict the title damage to Norris to 10 points.

However, he now trails the British driver by 49 points with just 83 points available across the last three rounds.

But Norris insisted: “I’m sure Max's going to be a threat in terms of races, and you never know with the championship.
