LUSAIL, Qatar — Red Bull's Max Verstappen followed up his Formula 1 drivers' title with another win Sunday in an incident-packed Qatar Grand Prix as Lando Norris was hit with a penalty that ended his race challenge. Verstappen had been dropped from pole to second place after an incident with George Russell in qualifying but got his revenge on the Mercedes driver by taking the lead at the start. The safety car came out three times and Norris was dropped to the back of the field with a penalty for failing to slow under yellow warning flags.
