Verstappen chasing first Singapore victory

Max Verstappen will arrive in Singapore with an interesting task – to win at the Marina Bay circuit for the first time. The Dutchman is yet to claim victory at the Singapore Grand Prix despite his numerous successes in Formula 1. The next edition of the race will take place from 9 to 11 October 2026.

Verstappen’s best result in Singapore is second place, which he achieved for the first time in 2018 behind Lewis Hamilton. The Red Bull driver also finished second in 2024, when Lando Norris took the victory. In 2025, history repeated itself, with Verstappen again finishing second behind winner George Russell.

The four-time world champion heads into the race weekend after winning the previous round of the 2026 season in Malaysia. The street circuit in Singapore, however, remains one of the venues still missing from his impressive collection of victories. On 11 October, Verstappen will have another chance to end that run and triumph under the lights of Marina Bay for the first time.
