Lando Norris ended McLaren's 26-year wait for the Formula 1
constructors' title as he won the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand
Prix on Sunday, Azernews reports.
There was drama at the start as champion Max Verstappen collided
with Oscar Piastri's second-place McLaren at the first corner,
sending both cars into a spin. With Piastri dropped to the back of
the field, that meant McLaren's title hopes depended on race leader
Norris.
Norris held on for the win with Ferrari's Carlos Sainz Jr. in
second and Charles Leclerc surging up to third from 19th on the
grid.
Seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton was fourth in his last race
for Mercedes before joining Ferrari next year.
