Singapore Grand Prix Prediction and Tips

Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton have given us some spectacularly entertaining battles over the years, and another chapter may be written in Sunday's Singapore Grand Prix.

Verstappen lines up on pole position and won Saturday's Sprint race, but the four-time world champion has never won the Grand Prix at Marina Bay.

His Red Bull team-mate Isack Hadjar suffered severe mechanical issues throughout Saturday and that must be a concern for Verstappen, driving an identical car.

Hadjar starts from the back, which may give Ferrari, whose drivers Charles Leclerc and Hamilton start second and third, the opportunity to use team tactics to beat Verstappen.

Singapore Grand Prix Prediction

Best Bet: Lewis Hamilton each-way @ 11/2

Hamilton ended a six-race spell without a podium finish last week in Malaysia, but what was particularly impressive about that was that he had been more than a minute adrift of the leader in the early stages.

The Ferrari star had started second, but despite the track being wet he had opted to start on dry-weather tyres in the expectation that the road would dry quickly.

It was soon clear that was a disastrous decision, but while safety-car appearances help to close the pack back together, Hamilton still had to overtake several cars on his way back up into the top three.

Had he started on the favoured intermediate, Hamilton may have had the pace to win for the second time this season.

The Ferrari has again looked competitive, and he was just 0.123 seconds off pole position despite a pretty scrappy lap on his fastest attempt.

If his race pace is as strong as last week, Hamilton is certainly worth backing each-way at the prices. 

Alternative Bet: Liam Lawson top-six finish @ 3/1

New Zealander Liam Lawson has returned in fine form from a three-race stand-in at Red Bull while Hadjar was injured.

He missed out on points on his return to Racing Bulls in Azerbaijan after being involved in a collision with his team-mate Arvid Lindblad, but mastered tricky conditions to finish a fine seventh in Malaysia.

Lawson has looked really strong this weekend, finishing fifth in the Sprint race, and with regular top-six finishers Hadjar and George Russell starting from the back, the Kiwi could take advantage and record his fourth top-six finish of the season.

    16/1

Lando Norris was in hot water after the Sprint race as his last-lap lunge on McLaren team-mate Oscar Piastri put the Australian out of the race and dropped Norris to eighth.

The pair had been running fourth and fifth prior to the fracas, and while Norris has not been in the kind of form that saw him win back-to-back races in Hungary and the Netherlands, he should not be too far away from the podium on Sunday.

Valtteri Bottas spun off on the seventh lap of the Malaysian Grand Prix and that marked the ninth time in the last 12 races that at least one of the Cadillacs has failed to finish.
