How to watch the Las Vegas Grand Prix in the U.S.: Formula 1 times, TV, streaming
Lando Norris takes a 24-point lead into this weekend’s Las Vegas Grand Prix, with Oscar Piastri and Max Verstappen giving chase.
Dry, cool conditions are expected on race day in Las Vegas this weekend, as Formula 1 heads to Nevada for the third-to-last Grand Prix in the 2025 season.
Who’s leading the F1 title standings?
After victory in the São Paulo Grand Prix earlier this month, McLaren’s Lando Norris is in control of the title race. The Briton leads team-mate Oscar Piastri by 24 points in the World Drivers’ Championship standings, after the Australian’s fifth-placed finish in Brazil allowed Norris to extend his advantage by 15 points.
Norris and Piastri, who are both pursuing a first career World Drivers’ Championship, are being chased by four-time title winner Max Verstappen - but the Red Bull driver has only an outside chance of adding a fifth F1 crown to his collection.
The Dutchman produced a heroic drive to take third in São Paulo, despite starting from the pit lane; however, he lies 49 points behind Norris.
