F1 heads to the United Arab Emirates this weekend for the last race of the season. A Grand Prix whose main challenge will be the fight between Mercedes and Ferrari for second place in the constructors' championship.
The suspense will not have been there. the key word of this Formula 1 season. The fault mainly lies with Red Bull, and particularly with Red Bull. Max Verstappen. The Dutchman reduced the competition to the level of stooges. The 26-year-old pilot won the race. his third world crown at the start of October, in Qatar, while there were still five Grands Prix remaining on the calendar. One number perfectly sums up Vesrtappen's ultra-domination in 2023: he won the championship. 18 of the 21 Grands Prix contested this year, a new record in this area that he had already set. established a year earlier with 15 wins.
While he will be able to try to raise the bar 19, this weekend, at on the occasion of the last race of the season scheduled for Abu Dhabi, Max Verstappen has more than twice as many points as his runner-up, who is none other than his teammate Sergio Perez, in the world championship standings (549 against 273). The first driver from another team, Lewis Hamilton, was relegated. …317 points! We are far, very far, from the marvelous battle between the Dutch and the British to obtain the title in 2021.
The overwhelming domination of one driver is obviously not very good news for Formula 1. For the last race before a truce of almost four months, the stakes are minimal. The podium of the World Drivers' Championship is already there. known and only uncertainty remains as to the name of the stable which will end at second place. Currently runner-up to the untouchable Red Bull, Mercedes only has four points more than Ferrari before battling it out on the United Arab Emirates circuit.
The battle is likely to rage between Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz on one side, Lewis Hamilton and George Russell on the other. Especially after the Las Vegas episode where Mercedes was the only team to take part. having posed his veto following the penalty of 10 places inflicted on Carlos Sainz on the starting grid after a drain destroyed the Spaniard's car during the first session of the race. free trials. Enough to spice up a race that will still lack a little flavor.
