New F1 championship standings after the Singapore Grand Prix sprint race

Max Verstappen claimed his 14th Formula 1 sprint race victory at the Singapore Grand Prix. The Red Bull driver beat his arch F1 rival Lewis Hamilton to the win in a dramatic and damp 20-lap race as Singapore hosted the sprint format for the first time ever. Verstappen has subsequently leapfrogged reigning world champion Lando Norris into fifth in the drivers’ standings. But the big story in terms of the championship permutations came as George Russell crashed out of the lead on the second lap.
