F1 Results Today: Fernando Alonso STUNS as McLaren thwarted at Singapore Grand Prix
F1 champion Fernando Alonso stunned the field at the Singapore Grand Prix after he beat both McLarens to take the top spot in FP1.
The Spaniard rediscovered his old magic ahead of the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen, with Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris languishing in fifth and sixth respectively.
Alex Albon endured a terrible start to the Singapore GP after his Williams was shrouded in a plume of smoke in the pit lane, where the mechanics gathered to extinguish a brake fire.
The 29-year-old remained in the cockpit for a short while, but visibly struggled with the quantity of smoke and was forced to return to the garage, ruling him out of the session entirely.
FP1 is one of the least representative of the weekend, with FP2 taking place later on Friday and under the floodlights, in similar conditions to qualifying and the race.
