While Norris himself may not have lost sight of the title, his team will be hoping that both he and team-mate Oscar Piastri can secure maximum points, with McLaren within touching distance of their first constructors' championship since 1998.

After claiming two of the three victories during the previous triple-header, Ferrari have crept up behind the papaya outfit, just 36 points behind them after leapfrogging reigning champions Red Bull.
