WEEKEND WARM-UP: Norris, Verstappen and Piastri talk title chances ahead of Abu Dhabi showdown
There are plenty of talking points ahead of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix title-decider, with the F1 TV crew here to run through them all.
The Formula 1 paddock reconvenes this weekend for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, with all eyes on who will take this year's Drivers' title.
Lando Norris heads into the weekend on the cusp of his maiden Formula 1 title, the Briton holding a 12-point lead over Max Verstappen and admitting he has "most to lose" in Sunday's race.
In turn, Verstappen approaches this weekend "very relaxed" having overturned a 104-point margin after a stunning late run in the season for himself and Red Bull.
Oscar Piastri sits 16 points behind Norris and despite missing out on victory in Qatar due to McLaren's strategy, "carries a lot of confidence" into the title-decider.
Elsewhere, the 2026 grid was confirmed with Arvid Lindblad set to make his F1 debut with Racing Bulls as Isack Hadjar is promoted to the Red Bull team in place of Yuki Tsunoda.
Join Laura Winter, James Hinchcliffe, Jolyon Palmer and Juan Pablo Montoya on Weekend Warm-Up for all of the above and much more.
