Max Verstappen became champion in dramatic fashion after a last-lap overtake on Lewis Hamilton at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Like the 2021 season as a whole, the Yas Marina finale had it all with great racing and controversy in equal measure.

GPFans has collated a gallery of images to relive the frantic 58 lap race:
