Singapore Grand Prix: Charles Leclerc Seizes Pole in Marina Bay, Max Verstappen Left Fuming

News 18  

Charles Leclerc took pole position on Saturday for the Singapore Grand Prix, but Formula One world championship leader Max Verstappen was left fuming after finishing only eighth fastest. Leclerc clocked 1min 49.412sec in his Ferrari in damp conditions to top the timesheets 0.022sec ahead of Red Bull’s Sergio Perez, with the Mercedes of Lewis Hamilton third. Verstappen, who has a mathematical chance to retain his world title this weekend, had looked set to challenge Leclerc’s time on his final flying lap before being told to abandon by his Red Bull team. “We ran out of fuel, so it’s just incredibly frustrating and shouldn’t happen," Verstappen told Sky Sports F1.
