What Could Have Changed

*If Grosjean, Romain matched field median pace*: Estimated 27.3s per lap faster. This remains a hypothetical scenario. (Based on 1 piece(s) of evidence.)

*If Verstappen, Max matched field median pace*: Estimated 30.3s per lap faster. This remains a hypothetical scenario. (Based on 1 piece(s) of evidence.)

Looking Ahead: Singapore Grand Prix

Lewis Hamilton has built a 87-point cushion over Valtteri Bottas after Italian Grand Prix. Rivals need a sustained run of dominant results to close this gap.

The Singapore Grand Prix at Singapore, Singapore brings a different challenge — the tight street layout rewards qualifying pace and punishes mistakes. That shift in demands could create opportunities for drivers who struggled at Italian Grand Prix.

What to watch:

- Pierre Gasly just 1 pts behind Carlos Sainz — a win flips positions

- Saturday qualifying could decide Sunday's winner

- Can Max Verstappen maintain podium momentum into the next round

Singapore Grand Prix could be where the championship battle truly ignites.
