    The Red Bull driver claimed the title by finishing fifth, ahead of championship rival Lando Norris, in the race which was won by George Russell of Mercedes. 

    Verstappen is now behind only Lewis Hamilton (seven), Michael Schumacher (seven) and Juan Manuel Fangio (five) in terms of world titles won, and the Dutchman has said he will aim for a fifth title in 2025. 

    "If you look to next year right now, I think it's going to be a proper battle between a lot of cars, but I'm hungry," said Verstappen, who secured the title with two races to spare. 

    "I'm going to enjoy this and there are still two more races that I want to do well. We take a little break, and we will try and go for it again next year."

    It has been a challenging season for the Red Bull driver who won seven of the first 10 races in 2024, but has only recorded a single victory in 12 races since, allowing McLaren's Norris to mount a championship fight.  

    But Norris, who came in at sixth place on Sunday, is now 63 points behind the Dutchman with only 60 points left to race for this season. 

    "It’s been a long season. We started off amazing, and we were cruising, but then we had a tough run as a team, but we kept it together, we kept working on improvements and I couldn’t be more proud of everyone, what they have done for me," said Verstappen, the sixth driver to win four drivers' championships or more. 

    To stand here as a four-time world champion is something I never thought was possible. At the moment I’m feeling relieved but also very proud.
