Red Bull’s Max Verstappen is already looking forward to the Oct 5 Singapore Grand Prix after clinching victory in the Azerbaijan race on Sept 21.

The Dutchman pulled off a pole-to-flag victory after championship leader Oscar Piastri crashed out on the opening lap of the twisting street circuit.
Piastri’s McLaren teammate and closest rival Lando Norris was unable to capitalise fully, finishing only seventh and reducing the gap at the top of the standings by six points to 25.
Mercedes’ George Russell, who has been struggling with sickness all weekend, produced a fine drive to climb from fifth to second, while Carlos Sainz picked up his first podium for Williams.
“This weekend has been incredible for us... The car was working really well on both compounds. We had clean air all the time, so you could look after your tyres and it was pretty straightforward,” said Verstappen, 27.
