What happened: Scuderia Ferrari closed out the Singapore Airlines Singapore Grand Prix weekend at the Marina Bay Street Circuit as Max Verstappen converted pole position into his first career victory at the venue. Charles Leclerc secured a runner-up finish from second on the grid, while Lewis Hamilton crossed the line in sixth after starting third.

Why it matters: Leclerc's second-place result gives Ferrari a podium finish from the night race in Singapore, even as Hamilton lost three positions from his qualifying spot behind Kimi Antonelli, Lando Norris, and Oscar Piastri. Verstappen's sweep of the Singapore sprint and main race extends his momentum exiting the Marina Bay round.

By the numbers: Singapore Grand Prix top six: P1 Max Verstappen, P2 Charles Leclerc, P3 Kimi Antonelli, P4 Lando Norris, P5 Oscar Piastri, P6 Lewis Hamilton. Qualifying top five: P1 Verstappen, P2 Leclerc, P3 Hamilton, P4 Antonelli, P5 Norris.

What to watch: Formula 1 heads to Austin next for the United States Grand Prix as the 2026 regular season continues.
