Piastri Leads Norris in F1 Title Race as Singapore Looms
3 Oct
Summary
- Oscar Piastri leads Lando Norris by 25 points in F1 drivers' championship
- McLaren can clinch constructors' title this weekend with 13 points
- Max Verstappen aims to win at Singapore, the only circuit he hasn't won at
As the 2025 F1 season reaches its climax, the Singapore Grand Prix at the Marina Bay Street Circuit takes center stage. Oscar Piastri currently holds a commanding 25-point lead over his McLaren teammate Lando Norris in the drivers' championship, with seven rounds remaining.
Piastri will be looking to bounce back from a disastrous weekend in Baku, where he lost valuable ground to Norris. Meanwhile, McLaren is poised to clinch the constructors' championship this weekend if they can score just 13 points.
The talk heading into the Singapore race is whether Max Verstappen can mount a late title challenge to the dominant McLaren team. The Red Bull driver has won back-to-back races, but Singapore is the only circuit on the F1 calendar that he has yet to conquer.
Lewis Hamilton, still searching for his first podium of the year in Ferrari colors, arrives in Singapore mourning the loss of his beloved dog, Roscoe. The seven-time world champion will be determined to honor his canine companion with a strong performance on the streets of Marina Bay.
