LEWIS HAMILTON’S hopes of finishing second on the 2023 F1 leaderboards are fading – but there is still a chance with the Las Vegas GP up next.
The British mogul could only secure an eighth-place finish last time out in Brazil.
While his rival Sergio Perez crossed the chequered flag in fourth – opening up the gap by 28 points.
It wasn’t a shock to witness Red Bull champion Max Verstappen win a staggering 17th race this campaign.
However, fans are in for something different at the Las Vegas GP one way or another as organisers have created an F1-themed chapel in the paddock for couples to get married.
