Norris wins to seal constructors' title for McLaren

Lando Norris secured McLaren's first Constructors' Championship in 26 years with a dominant victory at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, sealing the title by 13 points over Ferrari.

Despite a strong Ferrari challenge led by Charles Leclerc, who climbed from 19th to third, Norris maintained control to finish ahead of Carlos Sainz.

McLaren overcame early drama when Oscar Piastri was spun by Max Verstappen, who received a penalty, leaving Norris as their sole hope.

Lewis Hamilton finished fourth in his final race for Mercedes after a strategic drive from 16th, overtaking George Russell late in the race.

McLaren's triumph marks the culmination of years of restructuring under Zak Brown and Andrea Stella, positioning the team as a favorite for 2025. Norris celebrated, declaring, "Next year's going to be my year."
