Daniel Ricciardo was axed from Visa Cash App RB after Singapore, with Liam Lawson replacing the Aussie star for the remainder of the season.

The 35-year-old’s former team, McLaren also extended their lead at the top of the constructors’ standings by 41 points, and have a chance to claim not one but two races wins away from Red Bull as they head into the Sprint weekend.

Can McLaren secure both F1 titles?

Not only do McLaren have the chance to claim the constructors’ title in 2024, but Lando Norris is also in hot pursuit of Max Verstappen in the drivers’ championship.

The pair are separated by 52-points, with the axed Ricciardo stealing the fastest lap point off Norris in a final farewell to the team in Singapore.

Even if Norris wins every race from now until Abu Dhabi, if Verstappen finishes second that stolen point could crucially award the Dutchman the title.

McLaren’s recent success has attracted attention from sponsors, with T-Mobile joining the team in an exclusive partnership.
