F1 Drivers and Constructors' standings after Singapore GP
Current battle
Mercedes still lead the teams’ championship after the latest round, having converted a strong season into 11 race wins from the first 17 events. Red Bull’s improved scoring has become the most significant recent development in the battle.
Main shifts
Red Bull’s momentum is putting pressure on McLaren’s hold on second place. Ferrari also collected valuable points through Leclerc, although Hamilton’s result limited the team’s overall gain.
What matters next
The outcome will likely depend on whether Mercedes can keep scoring heavily with both cars while Red Bull sustains its recent form. McLaren faces a more immediate need to prevent Red Bull from overtaking it in the remaining races.
