Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri collided on the final lap of the Singapore Sprint, leaving Piastri unable to finish.

The McLaren pair had run fourth and fifth from the end of the opening lap and were closing on Charles Leclerc in the closing stages. Norris tried to pass Piastri; the gap narrowed quickly, and both McLarens spun.

Norris apologised over the radio, saying: “I thought I was fully alongside. I just ran out of space at the apex.” He recovered to finish eighth.
