constructors’ championship

MAX VERSTAPPEN SECURED HIS MAIDEN FORMULA 1 WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP with victory in the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, Lewis Hamilton finishing second as the race ended in a nail-biting one-lap sprint after a late Safety Car. 

The result, which saw Valtteri Bottas finish sixth and Sergio Perez retire, means Mercedes have clinched a record eighth consecutive constructors’ championship.
