No updates or new car parts were brought to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, the FIA's car presentation submissions reveal.
Entering the season finale, three contenders can still win the 2025 F1 World Drivers' Championship. Lando Norris is currently in first place, leading Max Verstappen by 12 points and Oscar Piastri by 16.
| Standings | Drivers | Points |
| P1 | Lando Norris | 408 |
| P2 | Max Verstappen | 396 |
| P3 | Oscar Piastri | 392 |
With a regulation change taking place this upcoming season as well, no performance-based or circuit-specific changes were brought to the final Grand Prix at the Yas Marina Circuit by the contenders or any other teams.
As a result, it reads "no updates submitted for this event" next to all 10 teams' names in the FIA's car presentation submissions.
