The Singapore Grand Prix weekend
After a hectic Grand Pri in Baku last time out, there will be a lot to watch out for. McLaren took the lead in the constructors' championship thanks to Oscar Piastri's win. And, despite starting in P15, Lando Norris was able to cut the deficit to Max Verstappen to 59 points in the drivers' championship. However, lots of talk has been had about McLaren and their 'flexi-wing' on the rear of the car, so attention will be on that too.
Red Bull will be looking to retake the lead in the constructors' championship, but last year's Singapore Grand Prix was one to forget, so they will be hoping for major improvements. Ferrari and Mercedes will also be looking to find some pace, especially the Prancing Horse, who have had a lot of success on the street circuits this year, including a dominant win for Charles Leclerc at Monaco.
