George Russell drove to victory for Mercedes in the Singapore Grand Prix on Sunday, finishing ahead of Max Verstappen and Lando Norris, while McLaren secured the Formula One constructors' championship. Oscar Piastri placed fourth, which reduced his advantage over McLaren teammate Norris to 22 points in the drivers' standings.
Piastri and Norris collected 27 points, allowing McLaren to match Red Bull’s 2023 record by winning the team title with six races left. This championship marked McLaren’s second consecutive title and 10th overall, achieved despite an early clash between Norris and Piastri.
Russell celebrated his first win at the Marina Bay Street Circuit, describing it as redemption after a crash there two years earlier. Verstappen finished second, while the race was classified as Formula One’s first official Heat Hazard, requiring drivers to have access to liquid-cooled vests.
