What a wild ride it's been.
Lando started strong with a win in Australia. Then Oscar took the lead in Saudi Arabia and held it for 15 straight races. The championship looked settled. McLaren 1-2, Oscar on top, Lando playing support.
Then Las Vegas happened. Both McLarens disqualified. Max won, closing to just 24 points behind Lando with two races left. Oscar's dream died in the stewards' room. The title fight became a three-way knife edge.
Abu Dhabi: Max wins. Lando finishes P3. The margin? Two points. The closest championship finish in modern F1 history.
