There were still two races on the current Formula 1 calendar missing from Max Verstappen's list of victories: Madring and the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Given that F1 only visited the street circuit in Madrid for the first time this year, that is understandable, but Singapore has proved to be Red Bull's Achilles' heel for years.
Until this season. In 2026, Max Verstappen was dominant in Singapore, claiming two pole positions and two victories over the sprint weekend. On Sunday, the main focus was on the start – a major headache for Red Bull this year – although Max Verstappen managed to hold his position this time.

“The start was critical, and it was just good enough. Again, something was not particularly right at the start, so I need to understand what went wrong there”, Max Verstappen revealed.
Max Verstappen currently sits 4th in the drivers' standings with 221 points.
