Lando Norris triumphs at the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix and closes the gap to Verstappen

1 years ago By Sports Desk

Lando Norris dominated the 2024 Singapore Grand Prix, reducing the gap to Max Verstappen to 52 points, with six races remaining in the Formula 1 championship.

Starting from pole position, Norris controlled the race from start to finish, despite several close moments where he brushed the barriers. The British McLaren driver managed to secure a comfortable victory ahead of his main title rival, Max Verstappen.

Oscar Piastri, Norris’ teammate at McLaren, finished third, completing an exceptional podium for the team. He managed to fend off George Russell, who successfully held off attacks from Charles Leclerc, who finished fifth.

Lewis Hamilton could only manage sixth place, with Mercedes’ strategy of starting the race on soft tires proving ineffective. Carlos Sainz, meanwhile, made a strong recovery to finish seventh after starting tenth on the grid.

Fernando Alonso took eighth place, followed by Nico Hulkenberg and Sergio Perez, who finished ninth and tenth respectively. Several drivers, including Kevin Magnussen and Alex Albon, failed to finish the race, while others, such as Daniel Ricciardo and Pierre Gasly, struggled to make progress in the final laps.

This victory allows Norris to close in on the top of the drivers’ standings, increasing the pressure on Verstappen as the season approaches its climax.
