Verstappen thrilled with first Singapore win at 10th attempt

Red Bull driver Max Verstappen secured his first-ever Singapore Grand Prix victory on Sunday, achieving the milestone in his 250th F1 start after years of coming close at the Marina Bay Street Circuit. Verstappen controlled the race from the front after defending well against Ferrari's Charles Leclerc at the start, leaving the new 2026 Madrid circuit as the only track on the current calendar where he has yet to win. Reflecting on the victory and Red Bull's recent upturn in form following car updates, Verstappen expressed his satisfaction with the team's performance across different tyre compounds and praised the hard work and motivation within the squad as they aim for more success in the final stretch of the season.
