In a dramatic twist to the 2025 Formula 1 title race, Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri are set to be disqualified from the Las Vegas Grand Prix<\/strong> after post-race scrutineering flagged excessive plank wear<\/strong> on both McLaren cars.<\/p>\n

Norris originally finished P2<\/strong> behind Max Verstappen, while Piastri secured P4<\/strong>, extending Norris\u2019 championship lead to 30 points<\/strong>. But FIA technical checks quickly placed both cars under investigation, with the matter referred to the stewards for a final ruling.<\/p>\n

If the disqualification is confirmed, it would be one of the biggest turning points of the 2025 season.<\/p>\n

\n

How the disqualification changes the championship<\/strong><\/h2>\n

If the FIA officially disqualifies both McLaren drivers:<\/p>\n

Lando Norris loses 18 points (P2 finish)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Oscar Piastri loses 12 points (P4 finish)<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Based on race points redistribution, Max Verstappen would gain +7 additional points<\/strong> because his rivals lose their results, and everyone behind moves up.<\/p>\n

Updated points scenario (after DSQ):<\/strong><\/h3>\n
    \n
  • Lando Norris\u2019 lead reduces from 30 points to just 24 points<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Max Verstappen and Oscar Piastri become level on points<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • Piastri remains ahead of Verstappen in the standings<\/strong>
    \nbecause he has more race wins (7 vs 6)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    This sets up a three-way title fight with two races left and 58 points still available<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    What happens next?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

    The stewards are expected to issue a formal verdict soon. If both McLarens are officially disqualified, the championship enters its most explosive phase yet:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Norris\u2019 title lead becomes fragile<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • Verstappen and Piastri enter a dead-heat battle<\/strong><\/li>\n
    • 58 points remain across the final two races<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      This could become one of the closest season finishes in modern F1 history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
