Rain in Las Vegas, cars on a low‑grip street surface, and a title twist decided more in scrutineering than on track. Dick breaks down a bizarre weekend where qualifying delivered the drama the race couldn’t, and a double McLaren disqualification blew the championship wide open.

In this solo race notes episode, Dick explains why Vegas was so tricky to drive, why the rain turned qualifying into must‑watch chaos, and how a simple skid‑block rule error turned Kimi Antonelli’s drive into a podium and dragged Max Verstappen right back into title contention. He also looks ahead to Qatar and Abu Dhabi, where just a handful of points could decide whether Lando seals it or McLaren’s season becomes a story of what might have been.
