Double world champion Max Verstappen took a record 15th win of the year in Sunday’s season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. The Dutchman, who wrapped up the title last month in Japan with four races to spare, led from pole position to chequered flag to cross the line 8.7 seconds ahead of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc.


The Monegasque  secured second overall in the championship with Verstappen’s team mate Sergio Perez, his rival for the runner-up spot, only third. The pair had gone into the race level on points.
