THE 27 TRACKS VERSTAPPEN HAS WON AT AFTER SINGAPORE TRIUMPH

Verstappen finally cracked Singapore. After nine winless starts at Marina Bay — more than any other track on the current calendar — the Dutchman led from Turn 1 and never looked back, closing out his longest-standing venue curse and bringing his circuit win total to 27.

That puts him second only to Hamilton's 31 different tracks conquered. The Red Bull Ring, Mexico City, and Abu Dhabi anchor his trophy case at five wins each, while Austin — site of four Verstappen victories since 2021 — remains his most successful American stop. He's also cleaned up at Suzuka (four wins, all from pole) and Imola (four wins in five attempts since the circuit returned in 2020).

The Marina Bay monkey is off his back. What's missing? Seven circuits on the current calendar still haven't seen Verstappen on the top step. Hamilton's 31-track record is next.
