After a week’s break, Formula One returns to the United States of America after an early season race in Miami to the Circuit of Americas in Austin, Texas. F1 travels to COTA after crowning their 2022 champion, Max Verstappen. 


The Red Bull driver dominated the rain-delayed race like the remainder of the season and clinched the pole position ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc and teammate Sergio Perez. The Monegasque driver received a five-second penalty in the final lap which catapulted Verstappen to win back-to-back titles in Suzuka.
