Overview

• McLaren will secure the championship if they score at least 13 points in Singapore, which a podium for Oscar Piastri or Lando Norris would deliver.
• They would also clinch if they are not outscored by Mercedes by 31 points or by Ferrari by 35.
• A title sealed this weekend would match the record for the earliest teams’ crown with six rounds left, set by Red Bull in 2023.
• There are 346 points still available across the final seven races, keeping the math straightforward for Singapore.
• In the drivers’ standings, Piastri leads Norris by 25 points with Max Verstappen 69 back, and Verstappen has played down the likelihood of a late title push.
