Singapore: Lando Norris led from pole to chequered flag Sunday to take a dominant Singapore Grand Prix win and narrow the gap to Formula One championship leader Max Verstappen, who was second, to 52 points.

It was the McLaren driver's third career GP win and his first from pole position at his sixth attempt as he finished almost 30 seconds clear of his rival's Red Bull.

Teammate Oscar Piastri was third to extend McLaren's lead over Red Bull in the constructors' championship to 41 points with six races and three sprints to go.

It was a uniquely incident-free 62 laps around the Marina Bay Street Circuit under lights, the first in its 15-race history not to see a safety car deployed.

Norris got away brilliantly from pole and was clear of Verstappen into the first bend as Lewis Hamilton, on softer tyres, tried to put pressure on the Dutchman.
