For the second time this season, Lando Norris won a Grand Prix with a colossal margin over his championship rival Max Verstappen, demonstrating McLaren’s remarkable consistency.
The Briton came close to achieving his first career grand slam, claiming pole position and leading every lap of the race from lights out. Those grand slam hopes were snatched away late on by RB’s Daniel Ricciardo, who pitted on the penultimate lap to take the fastest lap away at the death.

While that could dent his championship hopes, the win combined with Oscar Piastri’s P3 finish extended the papaya team’s lead in the constructors’ standings, which will be a major boost of confidence.
F1 Nation host Tom Clarkson is joined by F1 Correspondent and Presenter Lawrence Barretto, Sam Power from Australia’s Channel 10, and Norris’s race engineer Will Joseph to discuss all of this and more.
They outline how McLaren put together such an incredible performance, as well as the possibility that Singapore was Daniel Ricciardo’s final race in Formula 1.
Plus, they explore the possibility that Williams rookie Franco Colapinto could be a great option for Red Bull in the near future after the Argentine’s strong start to his F1 career.
