TWO wins in two races for Lewis Hamilton means the F1 title race could be TIED heading into the final Grand Prix of the season. Hamilton’s win at the Qatar GP means he currently trails Verstappen by eight points going into the penultimate race in Saudi Arabia. That would leave them on EXACTLY the same number of points before the F1 season concludes in Abu Dhabi on December 12. That would give him an unassailable 26-point lead going into the final race of the season. Alternatively a Verstappen win would mean Hamilton would have to finish sixth or higher to take it to the final race at Yas Marina. Verstappen can clinch the title by finishing second and posting the fastest lap, if Hamilton finishes 10th or lower. If the pair finish the season LEVEL on points after the two remaining races then Verstappen will be victorious on races won.
