SINGAPORE, Sept 16 — Carlos Sainz put Ferrari on pole position for the Singapore Grand Prix on a shocking today for Red Bull who had runaway championship leader Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez qualify outside the top 10.

George Russell put in a late flyer to join Sainz on the front row, with the Mercedes driver splitting the Ferraris as Charles Leclerc qualified third with McLaren’s Lando Norris fourth.

The pole was a second in a row for Ferrari and Sainz. — Reuters
