McLaren Wins F1 Constructors` Championship at Abu Dhabi GP

The 2024 Formula 1 season concluded with a historic win for McLaren at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix. Lando Norris secured a commanding victory from pole position, ensuring McLaren's first Constructors' Championship title since 1998. This achievement breaks a 26-year hiatus for the team and marks their ninth championship, tying them with Williams for the second most in Formula 1 history.

The race was marked by drama, including a first-lap collision between McLaren's Oscar Piastri and Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who had already secured the Drivers' Championship. Verstappen received a ten-second penalty for the incident but still finished the season with an uncontested 437 points.

Ferrari, despite a strong performance from Carlos Sainz and Charles Leclerc, who finished second and third respectively, fell short in the Constructors' standings. Sainz's second place was his 25th podium finish for Ferrari, and Leclerc's third place saw him gain 16 positions from his starting grid, a career-best performance.

Other notable farewells included Lewis Hamilton's last race with Mercedes, as well as the final races for Valtteri Bottas, Zhou Guanyu, Kevin Magnussen, and Nico Hulkenberg with their current teams. Australian youngster Jack Doohan made his grand prix debut in Abu Dhabi, ahead of his full-time seat with Alpine next season.
