Can Norris win the championship in Vegas?
The short answer is no.
If Norris wins in Vegas and Piastri fails to score, the gap between the two drivers would be 49 points with 58 still to play for.
If the above scenario did happen, though, the earliest Norris could secure the title is at the following race in Qatar, which hosts the final sprint event of the campaign.
Norris would need to outscore Piastri by two points in the 100km sprint to be crowned champion.
