British Mercedes driver Hamilton is looking for a new world record in his name, by achieving eight titles, becoming the only driver in the history of Formula 1 to reach this number, and reducing the chances of his Dutch rival, Max Verstappen, especially after winning the Brazilian and Qatar races.

However, Red Bull driver Max Verstappen will not miss any opportunity to win his first title, especially as he leads the drivers' standings with 351.5 points, 8 points ahead of Hamilton, who continues to press in second place with 343.5 points. — SG
