There was no victory Max Verstappen and this is news at Formula 1. The Dutchman cut off his streak of celebrations and allowed it Ferrari achieve the first of the year: Carlos Sainz dominate it Singapore GP and achieved success in a thrilling finale. The Madrid man, who had a perfect Saturday, stuck to the plan.
For much of the 62 laps, the race was flat, with the Spaniard dominating. However, it got hot during the closing. Four cars arrived with a chance of winning: Sainz, Lando Norris, George Russell and Lewis Hamilton. Mercedes, who had already destroyed Charles Leclerc, had a tire advantage and threatened the Spanish dominance.
And Sainz not only won because he kept his focus despite losing traction, as he claimed on the radio, but also because of the good work of Lando, who was his veteran. The McLaren driver held on to second place and didn’t let Russell pass, who was disappointed. And not only that: he ended up in the wall to give Hamilton a new podium.
