Max Verstappen is out to clinch another Formula One world title as the F1 roadshow rolls into Suzuka for today’s Japanese Grand Prix.
If the Dutchman - who is on pole - wins Sunday’s race and in doing so seals a bonus point for the fastest lap, he will be crowned champion for the second successive season irrespective of the finishing positions of closest rival Charles Leclerc of Ferrari and Red Bull team-mate Sergio Perez, who triumphed against the odds in a chaotic race in Singapore last weekend.
