The 2025 Formula 1 season begins its Americas leg, starting off with the United States Grand Prix set to take place on Sunday. It will be the fourth sprint F1 weekend of the season.
Last time out at the Singapore GP, Mercedes' George Russell claimed his second win of the season by outpacing the likes of Red Bull's Max Verstappen and McLaren's Lando Norris.
Norris comes into this year's United States Grand Prix as the defending champion, with the British driver hoping to repeat the feat to close the 25-point gap between him and teammate Oscar Piastri on top of the Drivers' standings.
McLaren, with 12 wins in 18 races so far this season, is at 650 points in team standings and has opened up a 325-point lead over second-placed Ferrari.
