Winner: Sergio Perez · Loser: Max Verstappen · Winners: Ferrari · Losers: Alpine · Winner: Lando Norris · Loser: Lewis Hamilton.

Aston Martin secured their best result of the season, with Lance Stroll adding sixth to his five 10th place finishes this year. This was Red Bull’s first win in Singapore since Vettel in 2012 and only Perez’s second podium in seven races. He then had a poor getaway because of anti-stall, dropping him four places to 12th and while he recovered well, a lock-up when trying to pass Lando Norris undid all that hard work to date. A deluge just before the Singapore Grand Prix created the conditions for an entertaining race under the lights at Marina Bay. For the first time since France and only the sixth time this season, Daniel Ricciardo brought his McLaren home in the points, finishing fifth in what was his best drive of the season.

Lando Norris is the only driver outside the top-three teams to score a podium this year (at Imola) and at one stage in Singapore, he was hustling Sainz in a bid to make it two. It was the second time in a row Alpine have failed to score – and as a result, the Enstone-based team have dropped behind McLaren into fifth in the standings.

Sergio Perez has come in for a fair bit of criticism of late, the Mexican struggling to match Red Bull team mate Max Verstappen – but he silenced those doubters with aplomb in Singapore, delivering an assured and savvy drive to take his second win of the year.
