We want for the softs at the last minute but it paid off. However, the team needed to have a fuel sample! Christian Horner tells Sky that they just couldn’t take the chance not to have the one litre of fuel back in the tank. I go back to the hotel and think about other stuff...” It’s a shame not to be fighting for where we want to be, in top-3.” And they’re [FIA] going to have to deal with it.” We made some changes overnight, as soon as I saw we were fighting for the front row I thought it was on today. In drying conditions, Verstappen, who has his first shot of securing back-to-back titles, appeared to be on course to take pole with his final throw of the dice. [Red Bull](/topic/red-bull) driver was under instruction from his team to abort his final lap due to a fuel issue, and he will start Sunday’s race way down the order. Sergio Perez took second in the other Red Bull, with [Lewis Hamilton](/topic/lewis-hamilton) third. But the 37-year-old could be seen wearing the piercing as he conducted his post-qualifying interview moments after stepping out of his Mercedes.

Leclerc beats that by 1.3s. Verstappen is 0.767s up on Leclerc after two sectors.... 2:59PM. Q3 - 2 mins remain. This is going to be a critical, crucial, ...
And the track may not be completely dry by the start of Q1 in any case. To be honest, in Singapore pretty much all of the fluid you take on is secreted out through sweat. and indeed the fastest lap of the session, nearly a second faster than Leclerc in second. Hamilton with the fastest first sector of the session... To the start, I think it's a good opportunity to attack Charles and go for the win. In Q3 we didn't really know what to do, we went for the soft at the last minute. I am grateful for the team for continuing to push. At the moment I am not really in the mood to think about the race tomorrow. The ambition needs to be to win it but we need o be careful with our expectations. On the final lap they told me to box and I think I realised what was going to happen. Was that on his penultimate lap – which was competitive – the team told him to abort. I had to go to the doctor to have a blood blister treated as there was pus and blood.

But today, it was good that we're able to get temperature in the tyres and that enabled us to have the confidence to push and fight with these guys. I think you just set a fastest sector in the middle sector, then obviously, you ended up third in the final results. For them, it was Turn 13; for me it was Turn 16, was a bit of a handful, lost a bit of time there, but I still have to be grateful to be on the front row (sic). SP: It's never nice to be so close to pole because it always brings you back to your lap and especially in such a long lap, you know that you could have done better here or there. Looking back it was probably the right choice for the team because it helped us to do a one-two which probably wouldn't have been possible without that. And I honestly, I have full confidence in Mohammed in the way that he's conducted himself to this point and in terms of being strict and being clear with the rules. I don't know what happened with him in the session but again, I don't know why, the car was we're just working. The rules are rules and for those sort of things, which can lead to real alterations in terms of car performance, those sorts of things, we definitely have to take it seriously. So, I think at the end, it was so difficult to get that lap perfect. Q: It was a challenging start to the weekend for you this weekend. Not my last lap, but the one just before was really good and was the lap for pole. SP: Yeah, I mean, it was so tricky to learn the conditions today, and tomorrow, again, it can be wet at any time.

We were hoping the rain was going to make a bit of a difference today as it has in the past. Coming into this weekend we knew that it was going to be difficult for us as a team with the track being one of the least suited to our package. We have good pace to be able to challenge for points tomorrow and I am confident that we will be in the mix for the top 10.” Starting 16th is going to be a challenge, especially as this is the second hardest track on which to overtake: but you never know – this is Singapore, everything can happen and I believe in miracles!" When I was on the soft tyres in the final moments of Q2, I had to really attack on the dry parts of the lap. At the end, in Q3, I told the team that I didn’t know what we should do and to make a decision, and they made absolutely the right ones. We now look to the race, it seems to be a bit cooler again tomorrow, so hopefully that’ll help and we’re able to put it all together and finish with both cars in the points.” I always knew Qualifying was going to be tough here physically, for both me and the team, and the conditions made it even harder, but everyone did a really great job and it’s positive to have both cars up there in Quali. The longer run on slicks at the end seemed to give a good balance between having the tyres in the right window and time to learn where the grip was; the lap was looking very good but he grabbed a brake at T16 which was enough to be the difference between pole and third place. Hopefully tomorrow, we can fight for the win, but we also need to keep our expectations in check and maximise the opportunities we have in the race." As for Max, the track was ramping up and we assumed 5 laps would be the maximum we could do but as we came up to the flying lap, fuel was too close to the limit. We were very quick on the Intermediates in Q1 and Q2, then had to start again from zero on the slicks in Q3.
While Charles Leclerc stormed to pole position for the Singapore Grand Prix, Max Verstappen had to settle for P8 after abandoning his final lap.
While Charles Leclerc stormed to pole position for the Singapore Grand Prix, Max Verstappen had to settle for P8 after abandoning his final lap. Verstappen looked set to join the trio, going almost a second quicker than Leclerc through the middle sector, and claiming that he had been almost three seconds up on his own delta time – only for his final lap to be called off by Red Bull when he “ran out of fuel”. Ferrari driver Leclerc came out on top amid a flurry of late improvements in Saturday’s qualifying session, the Monegasque’s benchmark time of 1m 49.412s putting him 0.022s clear of Red Bull rival Sergio Perez and 0.054s ahead of Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes.
