Verstappen beats Ferraris to Singapore pole
Red Bull's Max Verstappen beats the Ferraris of Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton to pole position in qualifying at the Singapore Grand Prix.
Max Verstappen secured his second pole position in just one week by outpacing Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton during qualifying at the Singapore Grand Prix. Verstappen's quickest lap was enough to claim pole position, narrowly edging out Leclerc's second lap by 0.054 seconds. Hamilton, while close to Verstappen after the first qualifying runs, was unable to improve on his second run.
Most of the front-runners faced difficulties in enhancing their second runs, as evidenced by Mercedes' Kimi Antolinli securing fourth place on the grid, edging out McLaren's Lando Norris. George Russell, teammate of Hamilton, finished sixth fastest but will be relegated to the back of the grid due to a penalty for exceeding the engine part limit.
McLaren's Oscar Piastri was the only driver from the top four teams, besides Leclerc, to surpass his second run, but could only secure the seventh position on the grid. Alpine's Pierre Gasly and Racing Bulls' Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad rounded out the top 10.
