SINGAPORE - Carlos Sainz put Ferrari on pole position for the Singapore Grand Prix on a shocking Saturday for Max Verstappen and dominant Red Bull, whose record run of 15 wins in a row looked set to end.
"Now more than ever it’s true that I want to get it done, not like in Monza," said Sainz, who has Mercedes' George Russell lurking alongside on the front row.Runaway championship leader Verstappen and team mate Sergio Perez failed to make the top 10, an astonishing turnaround for a team that won the previous race one-two and have looked in a league of their own.
Asked if victory was now off the table, the Dutchman, who has won 12 races this season and is yet to finish lower than second, told reporters: "Yeah, you can forget about that.Perez, last year's winner, spun and qualified 13th for what will be his 250th Formula One start.Without the Red Bulls on track, rivals had all to play for and Sainz made his lap count with a best time of one minute 30.984 seconds.
"I really hope George gets a great start tomorrow and puts some pressure on those Ferraris. It would be great for him to get a win," said Hamilton.
