F1 correspondent Lawrence Barretto and Australian motor racing journalist Greg Rust join Tom Clarkson in the Marina Bay paddock to reflect on the Singapore Grand Prix in the latest episode of F1 Nation.<\/p>\n
McLaren have become World Champions for the second year in a row<\/a>, but the big talking point was the opening lap contact<\/a> between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. Will that incident change how the Drivers\u2019 Championship battle plays out in the final six races, especially now that the team have wrapped up the Constructors’ title?<\/p>\n George Russell converted a stunning pole into his second win of the season<\/a> with a dominant performance from lights out. But as his wait for a new contract with Mercedes continues, why does Lawrence think Russell is in a similar situation to the one Carlos Sainz found himself in at Ferrari?<\/p>\n Behind George was Max Verstappen in P2. It’s his fourth podium in a row and, given Red Bull\u2019s previous struggles in Singapore, does this result confirm they’ve finally turned a corner with their car?<\/p>\n And if Max does significantly close the gap in the title fight this year, will McLaren favour one of their drivers over the other to ensure they win a first Drivers’ Championship since 2008?<\/p>\n Also on the agenda, the guys discuss another frustrating weekend for Ferrari, while celebrating impressive points finishes from Sainz, Fernando Alonso and Ollie Bearman.<\/p>\n To hear the latest on all the biggest talking points from the race weekend, hit go on the audio player above or click here<\/a> to listen to the latest episode on your preferred podcasting platform.<\/p>\n
