Now things are getting interesting. Yes, Max Verstappen won again last weekend, but McLaren’s pace at a circuit many expected to be prime Red Bull territory suggests we have some fine Formula 1 battles to come in 2024.
Lando Norris’s early fight with Verstappen in Spain – hard but just about fair – also suggests he’s ready to consistently challenge the Dutchman. A championship contest might be a little far-fetched – Verstappen is 69 points ahead and has won seven of the 10 grands prix so far – but we’re now at a stage where we should have some interesting races at the front of the field.
