Overview

• Max Verstappen took pole, led all 51 laps and set the fastest lap to win by 14.6 seconds over George Russell for his sixth career Grand Slam.
• FIA’s final classification confirms Oscar Piastri as a DNF and assigns a five-second penalty for jumping the start after an anti-stall drop and lap-one crash.
• Lando Norris finished seventh to trim Piastri’s lead to 25 points, with Verstappen 69 points back and 199 still available across seven grands prix and three sprints.
• Red Bull links its pace to a new floor introduced at Monza and recent refinements, with team figures and rivals alike viewing Singapore as the decisive form guide.
• Carlos Sainz secured third for Williams, the team’s first podium since 2021, as McLaren’s slow stop and execution errors limited Norris’s chance to capitalise.
