Verstappen started on the fifth grid and went on to finish fifth in a memorable race held in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA where he collected 10 points.

The former Kart racer is placed at the top of the World Drivers' Championship standings having collected unassailable 403 points.
Verstappen has successfully defended his Formula One world title with two races to spare, namely the Qatar Grand Prix and Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Why Verstappen could win the 2024 Qatar Grand Prix
Verstappen will have good memories when he competes in the Lusail International Circuit as it is the venue of his 2023 Qatar Grand Prix triumph.
Oozing with confidence after retaining his world title in Las Vegas, the four-time Formula One champion knows what it takes to win in Lusail.
What did he say?
“It’s been a long season and of course, we started off amazing," Verstappen said after retaining his world title at the 2024 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
“It was almost like cruising, but then we had a tough run. But as a team, we kept it together, we kept working on improvements and we pulled off the win. Incredibly proud of everyone, what they have done for me...
"So at the moment, I’m just feeling very relieved, in a way, but also proud.”
