Formula 1 continues its East Asian tour with the Japan Grand Prix on [ESPN’ this weekend. It was Sergio Perez, not Max Verstappen, who won in Singapore, and while Red Bull is thrilled with the results, Verstappen can’t be. With just a few races left, Verstappen is still within range of setting some all-time records, but he has to get back on top of the podium to get there. Watch all of the action on Sunday, Oct. 9 at 1 a.m. ET with a 5-Day Free Trial of DIRECTV STREAM.

How to Watch the 2022 F1 Japan Grand Prix

How Can Max Verstappen Clinch the World Championship?

Verstappen needs to have a 112-point lead in order to clinch his second world title. He currently leads Perez by 106 points and Charles Leclerc by 104 points. If Verstappen wins the race and claims the extra point for the fastest lap, he wins the title, no matter what the other drivers do.

If Verstappen wins but does not claim the fastest lap, Leclerc must finish second in order to keep his dreams alive. Any finish below second for Leclerc means Verstappen wins. A Verstappen win eliminates Perez no matter what.

If Verstappen does not win the race, he can still capture the title by outscoring Leclerc and Perez. If he finishes eight points ahead of Leclerc and six points ahead of Perez, he wins it. If Verstappen has another seventh-place finish, he’ll have to wait until F1 travels back to the U.S. to win the title.
