The statistical F1 anomaly Verstappen will seek to remedy in Singapore

Winning at every grand prix venue on the regular schedule is a remarkable achievement and one Max Verstappen has in view – although he has yet to check Singapore off the list. It’s one of the most challenging tests for drivers as they cope with heat and humidity for almost two hours on a bumpy, twisting surface with the concentration required to avoid mistakes under the lights.

An error cost Verstappen a huge opportunity in 2022, but it wasn’t his mistake. Damp qualifying encouraged teams to fuel the cars for the final session and run non-stop, yet when Verstappen was on a blistering lap he was called into the pits by Red Bull, having discovered he was about to run short on the required amount of fuel.
