F1 heads to Singapore: Antonelli leads the title race

Formula 1 heads to the Marina Bay Street Circuit for the Singapore Grand Prix on October 9-11, with Kimi Antonelli leading the drivers’ championship on 302 points.
The Italian teenager holds a 66-point advantage over Mercedes team-mate George Russell on 236, while Lewis Hamilton is third on 199 after the latest rounds.
Singapore is a sprint weekend, offering extra points and an extra chance for rivals to close the gap in what has been a Mercedes-dominated season.
Charles Leclerc will race in a special black race suit for Ferrari in Singapore, a one-off design unveiled by the team for the night race.
The Marina Bay circuit is one of the toughest on the calendar, with high humidity, 23 corners and little margin for error under the floodlights. Lando Norris, who won here last year for McLaren, will be hoping for a repeat to keep his slim title hopes alive. With six rounds remaining after Singapore, every point matters in the fight for the 2026 crown.
