Lewis Hamilton has extended his advantage in the drivers' standings despite finishing fourth at Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix, as Sebastian Vettel took his first victory of the season.

Hamilton's teammate Valtteri Bottas finished fifth, allowing Hamilton to extend his lead by a further two points to 64 points with six Grands Prix left to go.

Charles Leclerc's second place has brought him level on points with Red Bull's Max Verstappen, with the Monegasque ahead due to having more second placed finishes. Vettel is just six points back on 194.

Carlos Sainz's poor form means Pierre Gasly stays in sixth ahead of the Spaniard, with Alex Albon in seventh. Further back, Lando Norris' seventh placed finish jumps him to 12th.
