Verstappen in good spirits for Las Vegas: 'We want to continue that!'

After a great race at the Brazilian Grand Prix, Max Verstappen could become a 4x world champion as early as the Las Vegas Grand Prix. This feeling has left him in high spirits as he looks forward to the next race weekend.

Despite having a 16-place head start, Lando Norris failed to gain precious points in the championship fight. Norris's subpar racing left Max Verstappen with the opportunity to win the race earlier than expected. For Verstappen to clinch the championship title at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, Norris must not score more than two points on his championship rival.

Still riding the high emotions from his Sao Paulo victory, Verstappen says: "Brazil was an incredible race for us and a very special moment for myself and the team. It was great to see how good we were again; the team did a great job, and we hope we can continue this in the coming races."

He continued, "Vegas is, of course, the start of the last triple header of the year, so this will be the last time [in this season] that teams will push. We performed well here last year, and it is a really fast circuit, with long straights and lots of opportunities to overtake and race. Again, it looks like the temperatures will be quite low, so it will come down to good tyre management. We approach each race on its own, and we are looking forward to the final races of the season."
