Ferrari put themselves back in the mix for the Constructors' World Championship by securing a one-two finish at the United States Grand Prix weekend. Charles Leclerc made an impressive move at the start of the race and never looked back. Carlos Sainz worked his way through to second. It puts Ferrari 48 points behind with five Grands Prix and three sprint races remaining.
