The drivers' championship may already be decided in favour of Max Verstappen, but the fight for the manufacturers' title is still on. McLaren sits 24 points ahead of Ferrari with just the final two rounds to run, while Red Bull is a further 29 points adrift in third.
The Qatar weekend will run to the sprint format, meaning limited practice on Friday and a short-distance race on Saturday.
