Piastri got ahead of Norris when he benefited from a virtual safety car while in the pits, but Norris was faster in the middle stages of the race, so McLaren swapped their positions. Polesitter Verstappen, who started on mediums like most of the top 10, was almost beaten to the first corner by the fast-starting McLarens of Piastri and Norris, the latter sweeping through to second ahead of his team-mate. Leclerc held fourth from Sainz, with soft-shod Fernando Alonso Aston Martin getting ahead of Hamilton — who had sustained slight damage — and Russell Mercedes. A lap after the restart, Russell and Hamilton swapped places at the chicane and Turn 1, while Bottas was punted into a spin at the hairpin by the other Williams of Logan Sargeant.

Max Verstappen claimed victory in the Japanese Grand Prix, and took the world title with it, after a dramatic late penalty for Charles Leclerc put the championship beyond doubt. Verstappen won a restarted race amid persistent rain at Suzuka, with Leclerc initially looking set to finish second. But the Ferrari driver was penalised for cutting the chicane on the final lap as he defended from the other Red Bull of Sergio Perez. The dramatic points swing means Verstappen heads to the United States Grand Prix, and the final four races of the season, with an unassailable lead over Perez and Leclerc — confirming him as champion. The race originally got under way as planned at local time, with Verstappen defending from Leclerc after a close run to Turn 1, and only two laps being completed before the action was red-flagged amid intense spray and a series of incidents — which included Carlos Sainz crashing out. A lengthy delay followed, with the overall three-hour race limit ticking down, and the two-hour window coming into force an hour after the initial start, as Race Control waited for a suitable gap in the weather to get the action going again. With just under 50 minutes to run on the race clock, the Safety Car led the field out of the pit lane for a planned rolling start, which was soon carried out and released the pack of cars — all of them this time forced to run wets, rather than having the choice to use intermediates. From there, Verstappen mastered the switch from wets to intermediates as the track surfaced gradually improved and edged away at the head of the field, eventually crossing the line more than 25 seconds clear. Leclerc was on course to finish second, and to keep the title race alive, but he was penalised for cutting the final chicane on the final lap to hold off a charging Perez, with the points difference meaning Verstappen sealed the crown.
