Max Verstappen triumphed in the 2024 Qatar Grand Prix, further consolidating his dominance in the season. Behind him, Charles Leclerc led Ferrari to second place at the end of a chaotic race marked by accidents, safety car interventions and numerous penalties. Prominent among them was the one inflicted on Lando Norris, who from second in the standings plummeted to the back of the pack for not respecting the yellow flag regime. Despite this, Oscar Piastri took the third step of the podium, helping to keep McLaren ahead of Ferrari in the fight for the constructors' title, which will be decided in the last GP in Abu Dhabi. Carlos Sainz, penalized by a puncture, managed to limit the damage with a sixth-place finish. The race offered spectacle and twists and turns, keeping the tension high ahead of the season's grand finale.
