On F1’s return to Singapore after three years away, a number of the frontrunners endured disrupted practice running on Friday, as Sainz led proceedings with a best lap of 1m42.587s to head a Ferrari 1-2 from team-mate Charles Leclerc in FP2.
Mercedes’ George Russell slotted into third ahead of F1 world championship leader Max Verstappen, who missed large chunks of the second practice session due to hefty set-up changes.
The Red Bull driver can seal the F1 world drivers’ crown this weekend if results go his way. Here’s how:
If Verstappen wins with the fastest lap, Leclerc finishes eighth or lower and Perez finishes fourth or lower
If Verstappen wins without the fastest lap, Leclerc finishes ninth or lower and Perez finishes fourth or lower without the fastest lap
Any alternative results that don’t fit into those two scenarios and the title fight rolls on to the Japanese GP.
