A season-long battle is approaching its conclusion.
Just one Grand Prix weekend remains before we find out who will come out on top in the fight for second in the 2025 F1 Constructors’ standings.
Here’s a rundown of what’s happened so far, where we stand, and who needs to do what in Abu Dhabi.
Here’s how the standings look going into Abu Dhabi:
Position | Team | Points |
P2 | Mercedes-AMG PETRONAS F1 | 459 |
P3 | Red Bull Racing | 426 |
Ferrari were knocked out of the running to finish P2 after they were unable to haul themselves within 43 points of ourselves in Qatar.
Here’s how it could all be decided.
There are currently 43 points left to play for in the Constructors’ standings. At present, we have a 33-point lead over Red Bull heading to Yas Marina.
Red Bull can score a maximum of 469 points, so our team needs 11 points from the 2025 season finale to guarantee P2.
It also means Red Bull must score at least 33 points to overturn the deficit - meaning at least a P1/P6 or P2/P3 finish.
So far in 2025, Red Bull have scored 33 points from a non-Sprint Grand Prix weekend once. That came at the Azerbaijan GP in Baku.
Two years ago, the battle for P2 between Ferrari and our team was decided at the last race in the UAE, with George’s podium securing the position by just three points.
Of the two teams still in contention, Red Bull have collected seven wins, while our team has two.
Red Bull also lead the way in podiums, with 14, with the Silver Arrows closely behind with 12. Red Bull have won two Sprints, while our team collected four podiums from the final three Sprint weekends of the year.
Across the season, our team has averaged 19.9 points across a race weekend, with a highest return of 43 achieved from the Interlagos Sprint event.
Red Bull currently average 18.5 points per weekend. Their highest-scoring race (41) came from the Austin Sprint weekend.
