    Seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen, who is seeking his maiden Formula One title, have been men of few words as they prepare for one of the sport's most gripping finales in Abu Dhabi on Monday morning

    Seven-time champion Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen, who is seeking his maiden Formula One title, have been men of few words as they prepare for one of the sport's most gripping finales in Abu Dhabi on Monday morning


    The pair are level on points going in, a situation that's happened once before in 1974, across 71 years of championship history.

    Hamilton's won the last three races, so any change to his strategy?



    And does Verstappen have a preference on how he would like a potential triumph to unfold?
