SINGAPORE (AP) — George Russell won the Singapore Grand Prix in dominant style Sunday as McLaren secured the Formula 1 constructors’ championship with six races to go.
Russell stayed in control from pole position to take his and Mercedes' second win of the year ahead of Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who held off Lando Norris for second place despite struggling with car problems.
Norris banged wheels with his McLaren teammate Oscar Piastri, who finished fourth, as he overtook at the start. Piastri complained to the team over the radio about Norris' driving.
It was the first F1 race to be officially declared a “heat hazard” by the governing body, the FIA, under new rules that came in this season.
