Nicht Gabby Thomas, sondern Melissa Jefferson-Wooden (USA) gewann das 200-m-Finale der Frauen am 13. September 2026 in Budapest mit 21,47 s (viertschnellste Zeit der Geschichte). Thomas belegte Platz 2 in 21,77 s. Bemerkenswert: Jefferson-Wooden hatte im Halbfinale noch hinter Thomas (21,88 vs. 22,15) gelegen und ihre Bestleistung strategisch für das Finale aufgespart – ein Sprint-Double nach ihrem 100-m-Sieg.

Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team clinches the 2026 Formula 1 Constructors' Championship at the Las Vegas Grand Prix (November 21–22, 2026)

Mercedes leads the constructors' standings with 630 points over Ferrari (504) by a 126-point margin (as of Nov 8, 2026; source: grandepremio.com / skysports.com). According to grandepremio.com, the Las Vegas GP (Nov 20–22) is the earliest possible race for a mathematical title decision: a lead of ≥86 points after the race would clinch the constructors' title early. With four remaining races (Brazil, Las Vegas, Qatar, Abu Dhabi) and this cushion, even a mediocre Las Vegas result suffices. Bookmaker odds imply >85% for Mercedes' 2026 constructors' title.

Bookmaker odds imply ~38% win probability for Max Verstappen (moneyline +160). He won the São Paulo GP today and holds the Las Vegas track record from 2025, where he dominated by ~20 seconds. Since Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) already secured the 2026 World Championship in Mexico, the remaining battle is for 2nd in the standings between Verstappen, Russell, Hamilton and Leclerc (within ~9 points). Verstappen is highly motivated to collect wins. Competition: George Russell +400, Kimi Antonelli +700, Lewis Hamilton +2800.
