Little bit gutted for Oscar Piastri, to be honest. His sprint win is overshadowed by Max Verstappen's third consecutive F1 crown but I'm sure the Australian won't mind. His McLaren team are giving him plenty of love after that performance.

Race control are apparently going through the mountain of track limits. Five-second time penalty anyone?

"I can't thank you all enough," says Max Verstappen over the team radio. The Dutchman can head into tomorrow's full race knowing the drivers' title is safely in the bag.

Lewis Hamilton has taken Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz's positions! The Mercedes man is up to fifth place!

Max Verstappen is almost there for his third world championship.

Oscar Piastri is almost there for his first Formula 1 win.

"I think Carlos is struggling."

Lewis Hamilton is chasing Charles Leclerc. The Ferrari and the Mercedes are wheel-to-wheel but the Leclerc shuts down any gaps the seven-time world champion may exploit.

Jack Lovatt: Utter domination from Verstappen, deserved 3rd title. Up to the other drivers/teams to massively up their game for next season.

Nulla Pax: Max has earned it. No question unless you are a hater. It would be nice to see him fight for it - but he has earned it.

That McLaren is a rocket ship on the medium tyre!

Target now for Max Verstappen is race leader Oscar Piastri. The two-time world champion is two seconds behind the McLaren. Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton has lifted himself up into seventh spot from 12th.

The incident between Sergio Perez, Esteban Ocon and Nico Hulkenberg is going to be looked at by the stewards.

Lando Norris has produced not one, but two overtakes on Ferrari. The McLaren driver is back into fourth place!

That soft tyre is going to fall away for Russell now as the final section of this race wears on.

Max Verstappen is up to third and is now trying to jump the Mercedes of George Russell on the soft tyres. The Dutchman uses his Red Bull advantage at the final corner and passes Russell to take second.

We've run out of words to describe Verstappen's season, bulletproof, dominant, consistent, effortless, perhaps the most dominant ever, but there's one thing to be dominant, but to be consistently dominant, that is an achievement of perhaps the biggest ever, not just for Max Verstappen, but for Red Bull Racing as well.

George Russell is trying to stay on the tail of Oscar Piastri but the McLaren is out in front on his medium tyres. Charles Leclerc spots a chance to pass Lando Norris and he takes it on the restart. Leclerc is up to fifth, Norris drops to sixth.

Max Verstappen is being told by his engineer on the Red Bull pit-wall that they've got to get to the end, tyres are clearly struggling, those on the medium compound of tyre are struggling compared to the soft.

Go! Go! Go! AGAIN.

Nico Hulkenberg has managed to get back to the pits with his damaged Haas. Esteban Ocon was on the inside, Sergio Perez was on the outside, and as Ocon tried to motor away from the two drivers, he clipped the wheel of Hulkenberg's car, then touched Perez's Red Bull.

George Russell was begging on the team radio to come in and make a pit stop but Mercedes told the Briton there was no point.

In the middle of that triple mess, Lando Norris made a decent move on the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc. The McLaren is up to fifth place.
