Singapore delivered a marquee win for Mercedes and sealed the constructors’ crown for McLaren — but who stood out under the lights? Here are the standout performers and those who’ll want a reset before the next round.
Top five performers
- George Russell – 9.5: Dominant pace, pole seized with two stunning laps, and race control that turned a 10-second cushion into a statement win. Docked 0.5 for an FP2 crash.
- Max Verstappen – 9: Managed gremlins in the RB21 impeccably and kept Norris at bay, limiting damage on a tough weekend.
- Fernando Alonso – 9: Vintage aggression, rapid late-race pace after a slow stop, and nearly a deserved P7 despite tricky track position.
- Lando Norris – 8.5: Out-qualified by his team-mate, but his decisive barge past Piastri unlocked the race. Hit Verstappen first, but recovered to third.
- Oliver Bearman – 8.5: Another composed points finish, out-performing a much more experienced team-mate and pulling off a bold pass on Albon.
Bottom five
- Gabriel Bortoleto – 4.5: Tyre nursing aside, a bump back down to earth after promising form.
- Esteban Ocon – 4: Off the pace in qualifying and struggled to progress in the race, second-best Haas on the day.
- Pierre Gasly – 4: Unlucky with an oil issue in qualifying; a flat race as he searches for momentum against his team-mate.
- Nico Hülkenberg – 4: From P11 on the grid to fading in the midfield; an uncharacteristic mistake triggered a high-speed spin.
- Liam Lawson – 3: Two practice crashes set the tone — a weekend to forget after the high of Baku.
Agree or disagree? The Marina Bay street fight always separates the brave from the bruised.
