F1 2025 Singapore Grand Prix starting grid after double DISQUALIFICATION

The FIA have announced the official F1 starting grid for the Singapore Grand Prix where two stars had been disqualified following qualifying.

George Russell secured a stunning pole position under the floodlights, beating Max Verstappen who was forced to abandon his lap after he approached a slow Lando Norris.

The McLaren star could only manage the fifth fastest time, while team-mate Oscar Piastri will start the Singapore GP third.

Kimi Antonelli was the filling in a McLaren sandwich, setting the fourth fastest time in qualifying and separating the title rivals.

Elsewhere, the Williams pair of Alex Albon and Carlos Sainz were delivered a major blow, after both their cars were referred to the stewards for a breach of the sporting regulations.

Originally starting P12 and P13 respectively, their rear wings were found to breach the sporting regulations, with Albon and Sainz both disqualified from qualifying.

As a result, both Williams drivers will start the Singapore GP from the back row of the grid. Here is how the rest of the grid will line up as a result of the disqualification.
