Max Verstappen won the Formula 1 sprint race at the Singapore Grand Prix on Saturday, according to the BBC, which reported that he finished ahead of Lewis Hamilton. The race was run in wet conditions at the Marina Bay circuit, and Autosport described it as a chaotic event.
The start of the sprint was delayed, The Telegraph reported in its live coverage. The Guardian also carried live coverage of the sprint and qualifying.
George Russell crashed out of the sprint, according to both the BBC and Autosport. The BBC reported that Verstappen's win came after Russell's exit from the race.
Separately, Formula 1 reported that stewards issued a verdict over an incident involving Verstappen and yellow flags. No details of that decision were available in the source material.
The sprint formed part of the Singapore Grand Prix weekend schedule, with qualifying also listed for the same day by The Guardian. The Telegraph's live coverage was published on Saturday morning.
The result adds to Verstappen's record at a circuit where wet running has often produced unpredictable racing, though the sources cited here did not provide further detail on the championship standings or the margin of his win.
Attention now turns to qualifying at Marina Bay, with the grid for Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix to be decided.
