ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW: 2024 F1 season

After a four-week break, the F1 season returns with a bang as they head into a hectic period of six races in the last eight weeks as the season moves towards a thrilling climax.

And in MotoGP, it is even tighter as the riders head to Australia for the fourth-last thrash around the track.

In terms of the F1 title, what looked like a shoe-in for Max Verstappen a few months ago after seven wins in the first 10 races is turning out to be a real two-horse race. McLaren's Lando Norris has closed what was an 84-point gap six races ago to a 52-point gap with another six left.

That means he has been closing at just over five points per race, so if he can continue doing that for five of the races, then throw in a win with a Max retirement, we have a serious thriller on our hands!

The action resumes this weekend with the 19th race of the season at Austin in the United States, and McLaren will look to extend their constructors’ championship lead, ahead of Red Bull and Ferrari.
