F1 drivers' standings after the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix
With his victory at the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, Oscar Piastri has taken the championship lead from Lando Norris.

Piastri was very impressive at the Jeddah Corniche Circuit, taking his third win in five races to start 2025. Verstappen was penalised for the incident at the start where he cut the corner, receiving a five-second penalty, which meant he dropped down the standings after the pit stops.
As a result, Verstappen had to settle for second place, a better result than he had expected at the start of the weekend. Charles Leclerc secured the final spot on the podium, finishing ahead of George Russell and Lando Norris.
