After a season of cryptic messages and focus on fairness, Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris have been fighting for their first World Drivers Championship title. But, with sticky moves and team orders, they've opened the door for Max Verstappen to take his 5th title in a row. Entering the weekend with an over 60 point gap, Max took both the sprint and the race win, and after a double DNF from the McLarens during the sprint, closes that gap to 40 points with 5 race weekends left in the season.

Plus, Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc improve at Ferrari, despite rumors of Christian Horner looking to make a move and replace Fred Vasseur. George Russell and Kimi Antonelli re-up at Mercedes, and the battle for the Red Bull seats intensifies between Yuki Tsunoda and Liam Lawson. And, of course, the Apple TV F1 rights deal.

Buckle up as we recap the US Grand Prix at COTA!
