Verstappen wins Singapore Grand Prix from pole for first time, second straight victory

Monday, 12 October 2026, 06:16 · 1 min read

Max Verstappen won the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday, his first victory at the street circuit in ten attempts, leading from start to finish after taking pole and the sprint race. Ferrari's Charles Leclerc finished second and championship leader Kimi Antonelli third, while Antonelli's Mercedes teammate George Russell, who started from the back after an engine change, took ninth, stretching Antonelli's lead to 102 points. The result, Verstappen's second win in a row, caps a turnaround for Red Bull after a troubled start to 2026, the first season under new car and engine rules, in which the team built its own engine with Ford.
