Zlatan Ibrahimovic: Racism in football can only be tackled by 'real consequences'
Zlatan Ibrahimovic says he is not ready to walk away from football just yet and is still hungry for more success.
The 39-year-old AC Milan forward is the current top scorer in Serie A, ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo and Romelu Lukaku, with 10 goals from eight league games.
Ex-Sweden international Ibrahimovic has played in the top division of seven countries in a career that started more than two decades ago.
"I'll keep going until I can't do these things I'm doing," he told BBC Sport.
"I just have to keep physically good and the rest will be solved by itself."
AC Milan are top of the Serie A table and unbeaten after 10 games, five points clear of city rivals Inter.
"We are in unbelievable form - we are doing great, we're doing good," the Swede, who missed two games after testing positive for Covid-19, said.
"But still we haven't won anything, we have to keep that in mind."
Ibrahimovic says his second spell at Milan differs to his first time with the club a decade ago. Last season, the side finished sixth in the league.
An added motivation has been the fact some fans were not convinced he could perform in a top European league as a 39-year-old who had been playing in the USA for LA Galaxy - despite having scored almost 500 career goals.
"The first time I came to Milan I came to a club fighting for the title, the second time I came it was in a situation to bring the club and the team back to the top where it belongs," he said.
"It's a different challenge, it's a challenge I like, because when they say it's too difficult, it's almost impossible, that's where I come in the picture and that's where I feel alive.
"If I can succeed and if I'm able to do what I think I can do, the feedback is amazing, the feeling is amazing because it's a bigger achievement than coming to a top team that is already top. I'm very motivated."
Recovering from a career-threatening knee injury suffered while at Manchester United in 2017 has also helped to drive Ibrahimovic.
"After my injury I said to myself that as long as I can play football I want to play," he explained. "But when you play on this level it's all about performance. If you perform, if you bring results, then you are still on the top level.
"As soon as you don't do that someone else will come and they will perform. I like that pressure because I don't want to be here because of what I've done before. I'm here because of what I do at the present time and that is the pressure I put on myself.
"Whatever I did before I don't bring it on the table now because it's like I have to demonstrate every day who I am. That's why I bring out the best of me every day. I'll keep going until I can't do these things I'm doing."
Ibrahimovic has played in the top division in seven different countries
The former Barcelona, Inter, Ajax, Paris St-Germain and Malmo player understands that even he needs to adapt his game, though.
"I have a lot of experience, goals have never been an issue, I just keep going. I'm not the same player I was five years ago, I'm not the same player I was 10 years ago, we all change because of the development in your physical point of view," he said.
"I'm honest in saying that I'm not running like I ran before; I'm running more intelligent now. The Italian league, the reason I say that it's the most difficult to play in for a striker is because it's very technical and the philosophy of Italy is to not to concede a goal rather than score a goal.
"I feel like I've been here different generations. I played against (former Milan defender) Paolo Maldini and now I'm playing with his son, Daniel. Hopefully I can play with Daniel's son also, that would be a miracle."
His recent positive test for Covid-19 was more of a "mental challenge" than physical, he said - he went on to front an information campaign in Italy asking people to respect social distancing and not to challenge the virus as "you are not Zlatan".

Lewis Hamilton described having coronavirus as "an experience" after he returned to his Mercedes car at the season-ending Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.
Hamilton missed last weekend's race in Bahrain after contracting Covid-19 but tested negative on Wednesday in time to race at Yas Marina.
"It's not something I really want to go into deeply about," the world champion said. "It was an experience, for sure.
"I am just happy to be back and grateful to be back with the team."
Hamilton's team-mate Valtteri Bottas, who was fastest in second practice session on Friday, said: "Nice to see him healthy and back. You don't wish anyone to have that virus and apparently it was not that mild."
Hamilton said he had "missed doing what I love" and that he had watched "some" of the Sakhir Grand Prix, in which his stand-in George Russell starred in the Mercedes and was only deprived of a debut win by a pit-stop mix-up and puncture.
Hamilton said that it had taken him much of the day to feel comfortable again in the car.
"It has taken a good session and a half to get back in the flow even though it was such a short amount of time not in the car," the seven-time champion said. "But we got through all the programme needed and [will] work hard tonight for tomorrow.
"The car wasn't quite the way it was when I left it. The balance wasn't the same but I am working my way back to where I am comfortable with it."
Hamilton ended the day 0.203 seconds slower than Bottas, as both Mercedes drivers unusually set their fastest lap times on the medium tyre compound.
Unlike Bottas, Hamilton did set a faster lap on the soft, which should have better pace over one lap, but had his time deleted for exceeding track limits at the final corner.
That time was 0.2secs faster than Bottas's pace-setting mark. He was the same margin ahead of Bottas on average on their race-simulation runs later in the session, for which both Mercedes drivers used the 2021 test tyre supplied by Pirelli.
Red Bull's Max Verstappen was third fastest, his best time also set on the medium tyre.
Verstappen was blocked on his soft-tyre lap by Racing Point driver Sergio Perez and said the tyre was "fine for me".
But Bottas said he had struggled to make the soft work effectively.
"The soft was tricky," the Finn said. "I didn't really get them into the window on the first lap and then the second lap they were overheating massively. The medium felt like the better tyre, which it shouldn't be."

Behind the usual top three, Red Bull's Alexander Albon was fourth fastest ahead of McLaren's Lando Norris.
The drivers from sixth to ninth - Renault's Esteban Ocon, Racing Point's Perez, Ferrari's Charles Leclerc and Renault's Daniel Ricciardo - were separated by just 0.003ses.
Ocon was 0.001secs quicker than Perez, who was 0.002secs ahead of Leclerc and Ricciardo, who set exactly the same time.
The lack of pace in the soft tyre suggests that the top teams may be even more determined than in recent races to try to make it through the second session of qualifying on the medium so they can start the race on it.
Alfa Romeo's Kimi Raikkonen suffered a big engine fire that brought out the red flag for a few minutes in the middle of the race runs.
And both Perez and Kevin Magnussen will have to start from the back of the grid in their Racing Point and Haas cars after exceeding the permitted number of engine parts for the season.
Russell, who had conducted the media day on Thursday as a Mercedes driver before Hamilton was officially cleared to race, was 18th fastest on his return to Williams.
He suffered a problem with his MGU-K, part of the engine's hybrid system, and missed the last part of the session.

bbc--2020-12-12--Covid: First round of US vaccinations to begin on Monday

The US public will start receiving the Pfizer/BioNTech coronavirus vaccine from Monday after it was authorised for emergency use , officials say .
The first three million doses of the vaccine would be shipped `` across all states '' this weekend , said Gen Gustave Perna , who is overseeing distribution .
Authorising the emergency use of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine on Friday , the FDA - which had come under intense pressure from the Trump administration to do so - said the move was a `` significant milestone '' in the pandemic .
During a news conference on Saturday , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government 's vaccination campaign Operation Warp Speed - said doses of the vaccine would be packed into shipping containers for transportation `` within the next 24 hours '' .
`` Expect 145 sites across the states to receive the vaccine on Monday , another 425 sites on Tuesday , and the final 66 sites on Wednesday , '' he said , adding that next week 's distribution would complete the initial delivery of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and cover about three million people .
He warned , however , that while it had been @ @ @ @ @ @ @ are not done until every American has access to a vaccine '' .
The Pfizer vaccine has already received regulatory approval in the UK , Canada , Bahrain and Saudi Arabia .
Like those countries , US health authorities are expected to prioritise health workers and care home residents for the first doses .
More Americans outside the highest-priority groups are likely to be able to get the vaccine in January , with general availability expected by April .
What has the FDA said about the vaccine ?
`` The FDA 's authorisation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vaccine is a significant milestone in battling this devastating pandemic that has affected so many families in the United States and around the world , '' the head of the agency , Stephen Hahn , said .
He said the authorisation came after `` an open and transparent review process '' that ensured the vaccine met the `` FDA 's rigorous , scientific standards for safety , effectiveness , and manufacturing quality '' .
Emergency use , the FDA said , was not the same as full approval , which would require Pfizer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
US media reported that Mr Hahn had earlier been told to approve the vaccine for emergency use by Friday or quit .

The US public will start receiving the Pfizer/BioNTech coronavirus vaccine from Monday after it was authorised for emergency use, officials say.
The first three million doses of the vaccine would be shipped "across all states" this weekend, said Gen Gustave Perna, who is overseeing distribution.
The vaccine offers up to 95% protection against Covid-19 and was deemed safe by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
On Saturday, the US recorded a daily toll of 3,309 Covid-related deaths.
The figure, reported on the Johns Hopkins University website, is the highest total in a single day anywhere in the world.

Coronavirus deaths have been rising sharply since November in the US.
Authorising the emergency use of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine on Friday, the FDA - which had come under intense pressure from the Trump administration to do so - said the move was a "significant milestone" in the pandemic.
A mass inoculation drive using doses of the same vaccine has already begun in the UK.
During a news conference on Saturday, Gen Perna - speaking for the US government's vaccination campaign Operation Warp Speed - said doses of the vaccine would be packed into shipping containers for transportation "within the next 24 hours".
"Expect 145 sites across the states to receive the vaccine on Monday, another 425 sites on Tuesday, and the final 66 sites on Wednesday," he said, adding that next week's distribution would complete the initial delivery of the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine and cover about three million people.
Gen Perna told reporters he was "100% confident" that the doses "needed to defeat the enemy Covid" would be transported safely.
He warned, however, that while it had been a week of progress, "we are not done until every American has access to a vaccine".
The Pfizer vaccine has already received regulatory approval in the UK, Canada, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia. Like those countries, US health authorities are expected to prioritise health workers and care home residents for the first doses.
More Americans outside the highest-priority groups are likely to be able to get the vaccine in January, with general availability expected by April.
What has the FDA said about the vaccine?
"The FDA's authorisation for emergency use of the first Covid-19 vaccine is a significant milestone in battling this devastating pandemic that has affected so many families in the United States and around the world," the head of the agency, Stephen Hahn, said.
He said the authorisation came after "an open and transparent review process" that ensured the vaccine met the "FDA's rigorous, scientific standards for safety, effectiveness, and manufacturing quality".

On Thursday, medical experts advising the FDA recommended the emergency-use authorisation. A 23-member panel concluded the vaccine's benefits outweighed its risks.
Emergency use, the FDA said, was not the same as full approval, which would require Pfizer to file a separate application to secure.
US media reported that Mr Hahn had earlier been told to approve the vaccine for emergency use by Friday or quit.
Mr Hahn, however, said the reports were "untrue" and stressed that the agency had not compromised safety in its testing.
How does the vaccine work?
The Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine was the first coronavirus jab to show promising results in the latter stages of its testing process.
It is a new type called an mRNA vaccine that uses a tiny fragment of genetic code from the pandemic virus to teach the body how to fight Covid-19 and build immunity.
"The vaccine contains a small piece of the [Covid-19] virus's mRNA that instructs cells in the body to make the virus's distinctive 'spike' protein," the FDA said.

"When a person receives this vaccine, their body produces copies of the spike protein, which does not cause disease, but triggers the immune system to learn to react defensively, producing an immune response against [Covid-19]."
The vaccine is given as two injections, 21 days apart, with the second dose being a booster. Immunity begins to kick in after the first dose but reaches its full effect seven days after the second dose.
The vaccine must be stored at ultra-low temperatures, which makes distribution difficult. Special shipping containers that use dry ice will be used to transport frozen vials direct to the point of vaccination, Pfizer says.
The pharmaceutical company has agreed a deal to supply the US with 100 million doses of the vaccine by March.

Joshua finally saw off the game Pulev with a hard right hand in round nine
Unified world heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua mixed power and patience as he knocked out Kubrat Pulev to raise hopes that a historic fight against Tyson Fury could soon be a reality.
The Briton smashed home a hard right hand in round three that forced his mandatory challenger to face a count and then sent him to the canvas with an uppercut seconds later.
Joshua, perhaps fatigued by the chaos, stepped off the gas and allowed Pulev to at least offer some mild threat, but a barrage of uppercuts in the ninth dropped the Bulgarian and a straight right hand wiped him out.
Moments after this fine blend of poise and heavy punching, the 1,000 fans granted access to Wembley Arena roared at the prospect of the IBF, WBA and WBO champion facing WBC title-holder Fury next.
"Whoever has the belts I want to compete with. If that is Tyson Fury, let it be Tyson Fury," said Joshua, 31.
Fellow Briton Fury quickly went on social media and posted: "I want the fight. I want the fight next. I will knock him out inside three rounds. I can't wait to knock him out."
Patience, power and uppercuts
Anthony Joshua beats Kubrat Pulev and looks ahead to Tyson Fury fight
Joshua, in a white sleeveless hoodie for his ring walk, was smart from start to finish on a night when the widespread anticipation of a fight with Fury - in which all four world heavyweight titles could be contested for the first time - dominated the narrative.
In his past two outings, Joshua has stood up to immense pressure. A second defeat by Andy Ruiz Jr in December would have left his career in tatters. He was punch perfect on that night.
A loss on Saturday would have made him the instant fall guy amid public demand for the Fury bout. Once again he was emphatic.
He found his range early on with flicked jabs as 39-year-old Pulev boxed cautiously and struggled to throw anything fast or crisp.
When the challenger did throw a jab in the third, a counter right landed on his jaw and stunned him. Pulev briefly tried to smile and roar in the face of adversity but eventually turned his back while under attack and faced a count. In a frenzied spell, an uppercut then sent him to the canvas before the round was out.
The pair punched one another after the bell, exchanged glares before the fifth and, while Pulev gained at least a footing in the following rounds, he was never able to land anything that would allow him to dictate.
Some will ask why Joshua was unable to end things more quickly, but after a year out of the ring, he controlled a fight against a man who had just one loss - to Wladimir Klitschko - on his record.
He could not miss with the right uppercut all night and the shot dropped the game Pulev in the ninth, before a jolting straight right to the chin left him unable to answer the count as the champion swaggered away, aware his night's work was over.
It is testament to Joshua that he continues to rise to such mental challenges.
Fury will move better than Pulev, punch with far greater variety, believe in himself more and set far more traps in the ring.
He will also inevitably bring a whole new level of mental warfare to any build-up should the fight happen.
Hope has never been higher that it will.
'AJ v Fury work starts tomorrow'
After being caught heavily by Joshua in round three Pulev roared and smiled defiantly
No sooner had Pulev regained his footing, Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn said efforts to make the Fury fight would start "tomorrow", adding: "It's the only fight to be made in boxing. It is the biggest fight in British boxing history."
Fury's co-promoter Bob Arum - one of several key power brokers involved - said he would work from Monday to make the "biggest fight since Muhammad Ali v Joe Frazier in 1971".
That such integral figures seem so positive, coupled with the fact an agreement over a financial split is said to already be in place, offers real hope the two could appear in what Fury's UK promoter Frank Warren repeatedly says will be the "biggest UK sporting event since the 1966 World Cup final".
There are many issues to resolve before a date is in place - complex television broadcast deals and a venue among them. The sight of 1,000 fans singing Sweet Caroline before Joshua's ring walk showed a return to packed out arenas - which will be a necessity for this event - is closer.
In the ring, the pair are both showing signs of improvement. Fury moved from elusive fighter to front-foot aggressor in beating Deontay Wilder last time out. Joshua - on Saturday and in beating Ruiz - has shown he too can do more than just wield knockout punches.
This was defence number one of his second reign as champion. A small cluster of men - Ali, Lennox Lewis and Mike Tyson among them - have had the chance to take the heavyweight world champion journey a second time.
Fury is in the select bunch too. The plot lines are endless.
It is time to make the fight of a generation.
Analysis - 'A UK sporting occasion'
Moments after his win Joshua threw another punch, this time at a poster featuring Pulev
BBC Radio 5 Live analyst Steve Bunce: Tyson Fury will be seeing that and saying if he fights like that against me I will walk right through him. Joshua kept flipping between styles and tactics.

He's back. And back in style.
More than two years after he last boxed on home soil, Anthony Joshua put on a fantastic show on his return to the United Kingdom.
The WBA, WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion stopped Bulgarian Kubrat Pulev in the ninth round at Wembley Arena, London.
Going into the fight, many of us were wondering which 'AJ' we would see.

Explosive Joshua in round three
After a cagey opening, in which both fighters sized each other up, Joshua sprung into life in the third round.
A barrage of punches and Pulev turned his back, giving the referee no option but to start the 10 count. A Joshua uppercut followed, this time Pulev hitting the canvas.
Fighters past and present were loving it…
Slipping jabs, unleashing with vicious uppercuts, Joshua was unquestionably on top.

Last updated on .From the section European Football Defending champions Real Madrid inflicted a first defeat of the season on La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid to move within three points of the summit .
Dani Carvajal 's excellent second-half strike from outside the box rebounded off the post and in off the back of Atletico goalkeeper Jan Oblak .
Real climb to third , while Atletico remain one point above Real Sociedad .
Both sides safely progressed to the Champions League last 16 with 2-0 victories in midweek , as Real beat Borussia Monchengladbach to win Group B and Atletico @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to Bayern Munich .
In La Liga , Diego Simeone 's side had won seven consecutive league games going into the derby , conceding just twice in their first 10 La Liga fixtures .
But it was Real who dominated in the early stages and Oblak produced an excellent save to tip Karim Benzema 's shot onto the post before Casemiro 's opener .
Simeone responded to a disappointing first half with three changes and his side were much improved after the break , though substitute Thomas Lemar shot agonisingly wide from Marcos @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
That miss proved pivotal , as Carvajal 's powerful attempt doubled Real 's advantage seven minutes later .
Thibaut Courtois produced a good save from Saul Niguez to deny Atletico a late lifeline with their only shot on target , as the visitors fell to a first defeat in 26 league games - since a 1-0 loss in this fixture on 1 February .
Real manager Zidane claimed leaders Atletico should `` definitely '' be considered title favourites ahead of Saturday 's meeting .
Despite their defeat , Simeone 's side still @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as well as a game in hand - but a third straight victory in a key week for Zidane 's side may mark a momentum shift .
At the start of December , defeat by Shakhtar Donetsk left Real in danger of exiting the Champions League at the group stage for the first time , and Los Blancos were also seven points off the pace in Spain .
But they beat Sevilla 1-0 last weekend to end a three-game winless run in La Liga , before winning their crucial final Group B match @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Zidane 's side have re-established some form with Saturday 's statement victory over Atletico , who missed the chance to open a six-point gap to Real - with Barcelona already 12 points behind .
For now , the result allows Real Sociedad to claim top spot when they face Eibar on Sunday ( 13:00 GMT ) .
`` We confirmed the improvement we showed in many areas against Sevilla and Borussia [ Monchengladbach ] , '' said Zidane .
`` There are criticisms that hurt , but they also make you stronger .

Real have not lost a Madrid derby in La Liga since 2016
Defending champions Real Madrid inflicted a first defeat of the season on La Liga leaders Atletico Madrid to move within three points of the summit.
Casemiro's 15th-minute header from Toni Kroos' corner gave the hosts a deserved lead at the Alfredo Di Stefano Stadium.
Dani Carvajal's excellent second-half strike from outside the box rebounded off the post and in off the back of Atletico goalkeeper Jan Oblak.
Real climb to third, while Atletico remain one point above Real Sociedad.
Both sides safely progressed to the Champions League last 16 with 2-0 victories in midweek, as Real beat Borussia Monchengladbach to win Group B and Atletico Madrid overcame RB Salzburg to finish second to Bayern Munich.
In La Liga, Diego Simeone's side had won seven consecutive league games going into the derby, conceding just twice in their first 10 La Liga fixtures.
But it was Real who dominated in the early stages and Oblak produced an excellent save to tip Karim Benzema's shot onto the post before Casemiro's opener.
Simeone responded to a disappointing first half with three changes and his side were much improved after the break, though substitute Thomas Lemar shot agonisingly wide from Marcos Llorente's low cross after 55 minutes.
That miss proved pivotal, as Carvajal's powerful attempt doubled Real's advantage seven minutes later.
Thibaut Courtois produced a good save from Saul Niguez to deny Atletico a late lifeline with their only shot on target, as the visitors fell to a first defeat in 26 league games - since a 1-0 loss in this fixture on 1 February.
Momentum shift in La Liga title race?
Real manager Zidane claimed leaders Atletico should "definitely" be considered title favourites ahead of Saturday's meeting.
Despite their defeat, Simeone's side still have a three-point cushion over Real - as well as a game in hand - but a third straight victory in a key week for Zidane's side may mark a momentum shift.
At the start of December, defeat by Shakhtar Donetsk left Real in danger of exiting the Champions League at the group stage for the first time, and Los Blancos were also seven points off the pace in Spain.
But they beat Sevilla 1-0 last weekend to end a three-game winless run in La Liga, before winning their crucial final Group B match against Monchengladbach on Wednesday.
It appears Zidane's side have re-established some form with Saturday's statement victory over Atletico, who missed the chance to open a six-point gap to Real - with Barcelona already 12 points behind.
For now, the result allows Real Sociedad to claim top spot when they face Eibar on Sunday (13:00 GMT).
"We confirmed the improvement we showed in many areas against Sevilla and Borussia [Monchengladbach]," said Zidane.
"There are criticisms that hurt, but they also make you stronger. We competed very well from minute one until the end, we must be satisfied with work well done."


bbc--2020-12-12--'I still have some feelings in my lungs' - Hamilton 'not 100%' fit before final race

Lewis Hamilton will head into the final grand prix of the season in Abu Dhabi on Sunday still suffering the after-effects of contracting coronavirus - and in the unfamiliar position of third on the grid .
`` I am not 100 % , '' Hamilton said after losing out in the fight for pole to Red Bull 's Max Verstappen and his Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas .

Follow BBC Radio 5 Live Sports Extra commentary and live text updates of Sunday's final race of the 2020 Formula 1 season from 11:30 GMT
Lewis Hamilton will head into the final grand prix of the season in Abu Dhabi on Sunday still suffering the after-effects of contracting coronavirus - and in the unfamiliar position of third on the grid.
The seven-time world champion missed last weekend's race in Bahrain with the disease, and although he tested negative in time to travel to Abu Dhabi and race, he is far from over its debilitating effects.
"I am not 100%," Hamilton said after losing out in the fight for pole to Red Bull's Max Verstappen and his Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas.
"I still have some feelings in my lungs, but I would drive if one of my arms were hanging off. That's what we do as racing drivers. It won't be the easiest race but I will manage and give it everything I have got."
As with many people who have come out of the other side after coronavirus, Hamilton says the main issue for him is one of "overall energy".
"One of the symptoms is it really drains you," he said. "I have been trying to sleep as much as I can but recharging is not as easy as it has been in the past.
"Plus, I lost a good amount of weight in that week. So I am not 100% the same as I was last time I raced. But it is in no way going to get in the way of me giving it my all tomorrow."
One final surprise
Verstappen's pole position was just his third in 119 F1 races
The final shootout for pole in this most unusual of Formula 1 season was, against expectations, a thriller.
Mercedes have secured every single pole this year except in the outlier circumstances of the Turkish Grand Prix last month, when rain and a slick, newly laid track surface left Hamilton and Bottas struggling for tyre temperature and grip.
Around the lovely looking but otherwise drab Yas Marina track, Mercedes again found themselves struggling with the tyres.
This time, it was because the car was much more comfortable on the medium tyre used in the second part of qualifying than on the theoretically faster soft in the top 10 shootout.
Hamilton, who had been fastest in the second session, found only 0.134secs on the soft, and Bottas 0.256secs.
Verstappen, whose Red Bull has been creeping ever closer to Mercedes on one-lap pace in the second part of the season as a result of the Brackley-based team ending development of their car, found 0.395secs, enough to swing the pendulum for his first pole since last year's Brazilian Grand Prix.
But the race will probably not be fought on the soft tyre. For the top three, it is likely to be a one-stop strategy, switching from the medium to the hard.
Mercedes had a small but important advantage on the medium, but predicting race performance is tricky because of a disrupted weekend in which few teams have done any meaningful race simulations.
"Not a lot of people had a proper long run so it will be interesting," Verstappen said. "It seems like our top speed is not too bad and that's always nice. Valtteri and Lewis are very close and it will be a good battle hopefully."
Millions at stake
Racing Point are narrowly ahead of McLaren in the constructors' standings after a season-long duel
The battle for the race win is one for honour and not much else, even if there is still an outside chance Verstappen could sneak ahead of Bottas for second in the championship.
But a lot of attention will be on what happens behind, with third in the constructors' championship still up for grabs.
Racing Point lead McLaren by just 10 points, and the difference in prize money between third and fourth will be something in the region of $10m. So this matters.
McLaren have given themselves a massive leg-up with a superb qualifying performance, their cars fourth and sixth on the grid, while the Racing Points will start eighth and 19th with Lance Stroll and Sergio Perez.
Lando Norris in fourth, just over 0.2secs from pole, was an even bigger surprise than Verstappen's performance. And there was pride involved here, too, because it means the Briton has won the qualifying head-to-head with team-mate Carlos Sainz, who is leaving for Ferrari next year.
"I don't really know where it came from," Norris said. "We have been confident all weekend, we have been doing a good job and the car has been much nicer than last weekend. But to be only 0.2secs off pole is what surprised me a little bit more.
"I am happy because I felt like I did a very good lap. My gap to Carlos was three and a half tenths - one of the biggest gaps all year - and I'm happy because I felt I deserved it and I put a good lap together. Surprised, but happy and a good position."
McLaren, though, are wary of what Racing Point can achieve after Perez's outstanding victory in Bahrain last weekend.
It is the Mexican who is back in 19th on the grid, after incurring a penalty for using too many engine parts this season. But Perez was last at the end of the first lap at Sakhir last Sunday, after being nerfed into a spin by Ferrari's Charles Leclerc, and still came through the field to win after Mercedes took themselves out of contention.
"They are going to be coming through and will be very fast," Norris said. "Sergio has been quite a bit quicker than Lance all weekend and if anyone's coming through it will be Sergio. But our car is performing well and we just have to keep our heads down.
"It is giving ourselves the best opportunity but it is not something we can get relaxed about.
"For now, we have to concentrate on maximising our own race, looking ahead and not behind. We know the Racing Points and Renaults will be very quick. We will do everything we can to finish as high up as possible."

Gylfi Sigurdsson's penalty was his second goal of the season
Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti said 2,000 returning fans made "a total difference" as his side ended Chelsea's 17-game unbeaten run with victory at Goodison Park.
Hosting supporters for the first time this season, Everton's hard-fought win came courtesy of Gylfi Sigurdsson's first-half penalty after Edouard Mendy fouled Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
That woke up Frank Lampard's side who then drew three saves from Jordan Pickford, one of which saw the goalkeeper brilliantly tip Reece James' shot onto the post.
Mason Mount also hit the woodwork for the visitors after 81 minutes, yet they struggled to find the fluidity which has seen them tipped as title challengers this season.
That was in part down to some fine Everton defending, but Ancelotti's side also had good chances, with Richarlison twice having shots saved and Yerry Mina wasting two headers.
"The fans made a lot of difference, it was a total different atmosphere," said Ancelotti, whose side ended a run of one win in seven games, without the injured James Rodriguez, and move up to seventh in the table.
"We only had 2,000 fans, but it made me happy, and I hope the stadium will be full as soon as possible."
Chelsea's second defeat of the season meant they were denied the chance to go top and remain third.

Everton fans give team timely lift
The last time Everton's fans saw their team in the flesh was back in March when they were thrashed 4-0 by Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.
And having missed out on a start to the season which saw the Toffees top the table after five games, they were unable to see summer signing Rodriguez in action because of a calf injury.
But those lucky enough to get a ticket saw the growing influence of top scorer Calvert-Lewin, who demonstrated his aerial presence by controlling a long ball with his head before being clattered by Mendy in the box to earn the decisive penalty.
That allowed Sigurdsson to stroke his spot-kick home for his second goal of the season.
The Icelandic midfielder has been overshadowed by Rodriguez's arrival in the summer and has found chances limited. But, wearing the captain's armband, he took his opportunity to impress and teed up efforts for Richarlison and Mina, who were both wasteful.
Calvert-Lewin, who was a menace on the counter-attack, also won a second penalty when he was caught by Ben Chilwell, but the England striker was ruled offside in the build-up.
Everton's problem in recent games has been their defending, which has not been helped by injuries to captain Seamus Coleman and Lucas Digne. Against Chelsea, their back four was comprised solely of centre-backs.
But after a mixed campaign, Pickford showed the watching supporters his capabilities by producing several saves in quick succession to deny James twice and Kurt Zouma.
That seemed to boost the fans and the defence, who were under pressure for much of the second half and held out for a first clean sheet since the opening weekend of the season.
It was a welcome filip for former Chelsea manager Ancelotti, who got a measure of revenge for a crushing defeat last season.
"We needed this performance and the points after a difficult period," the Italian added. "We lost a little of bit of our confidence, a bit of our attitude.
Everton spirit really good - Ancelotti
"Tonight we won for the spirit, not the quality of the play, we didn't have the ball a lot, but we defended really well."
Mendy error proves costly for lacklustre Chelsea
Chelsea took time to integrate their summer signings, which topped £200m, but after their recent form, it looks as though they have started to click.
Chief among them has been Mendy, who replaced the often hapless Kepa Arrizabalaga in goal and provided much-needed assurance behind a newly-formed back four.
So it was a genuine surprise when his reckless challenge on Calvert-Lewin led to Everton's opening goal.
In the Senegalese's defence, he had just recovered from a fall moments earlier when he landed heavily and collided with James as he collected a deep free-kick.
But after conceding two goals in seven Premier League games prior to this match, it was still an uncharacteristic error and summed up Chelsea's evening.
Lampard said it provided a dose of reality to those who say his side can win the league.
"It is a long season and these people talking about us winning the league with the best squad, it is ridiculous," he said.
"You have to look at the teams winning it the last three or four years, they have wingers, strikers scoring 30 or 40 goals. There are squads who have won leagues and Champions Leagues, and we are clearly not that."
After a methodical start, going behind kicked Chelsea into gear, with James chief among those attempting to score an equaliser.
His free-kick was stopped by Pickford, and then he watched in disbelief as his low shot against the post skidded across goal.
For all Chelsea's attacking talents, that was as close as Lampard's side came to scoring, with Mount smacking the outside of the frame with a late effort.
Olivier Giroud failed to continue his recent fine form and at times was left isolated by team-mates Kai Havertz and Timo Werner.
It was a game where Chelsea missed the spark of injured wingers Christian Pulisic and Hakim Ziyech.
Yet, given only Liverpool have scored more than Chelsea's 25 league goals this season, the fact they did not register a shot on target after Zouma's effort in the 28th minute will be of disappointment to Lampard.
Chelsea didn't have answers against 'tough' Everton
"We have players who are new to the Premier League and young, so we are in a position where nights like this may happen," the Chelsea boss added. "I don't like them but that's the challenge for us, to make sure we bounce back."
What next?
Everton travel to face Leicester on Wednesday (18:00 GMT) while Chelsea have an away trip at Wolves on Tuesday (18:00).
Everton have won three consecutive Premier League games against Chelsea for just the second time (also Feb 2010-Feb 2012).
No possession, no problem for Everton - match stas
Chelsea suffered their first Premier League away defeat of the season (W3 D2), with their last two defeats on the road coming on Merseyside (also 3-5 v Liverpool in July).
Everton had 28% possession in this match, their lowest on record in a single Premier League match they went on to win (since 2003-04).
Gylfi Sigurdsson's penalty was his first Premier League goal in 17 games for Everton, since netting against Leicester in July.
This was Chelsea boss Frank Lampard's second defeat in 12 managerial games against managers he'd previously played for in all competitions (W6 D4), with the other coming against Manuel Pellegrini's West Ham last season (0-1).
