What is the Las Vegas weather forecast?

Can Norris win the championship in Vegas?

Top 10 drivers  1. Lando Norris - 390 
2. Oscar Piastri - 366 
3. Max Verstappen - 341 
4. George Russell - 276 
5. Charles Leclerc - 214 
6. Lewis hamilton - 148 
7. Kimi Antonelli - 122
8. Alex Albon - 73 
9. Nico Hulkenberg - 43 
10. Isack Hadjar - 43

The short answer is no.

If Norris wins in Vegas and Piastri fails to score, the gap between the two drivers would be 49 points with 58 still to play for.

If the above scenario did happen, though, the earliest Norris could secure the title is at the following race in Qatar, which hosts the final sprint event of the campaign.
