Worth Watching Score

4.9

Ferrari dominated Austin with a controlled 1-2, Leclerc comfortably managing the race while Sainz kept Verstappen at bay, leaving little jeopardy at the front. Despite 62 overtakes, most were straightforward DRS passes in the midfield rather than sustained battles. A single safety car and just one DNF didn’t meaningfully disrupt strategy or the running order. Unless you’re here for a clean Ferrari showcase, this one is more “watch the highlights” than must-see live drama.
