Sport often thrives on hyperbole, yet we may soon witness a monumental moment in Formula One history. Kimi Antonelli is on the brink of becoming the sport’s youngest world champion, needing just 100 points to claim the title this year. With the season still unfolding and races remaining, the excitement builds as he starts the Singapore Grand Prix from fourth on the grid.

In a twist of fate, George Russell, Antonelli’s closest rival, faces a significant setback, starting from P21 due to a penalty for a new power unit. Meanwhile, Lewis Hamilton, the only other contender with a shot at the championship, begins in third position. However, with only one race win this season and a daunting 104-point gap to close, Hamilton's path to victory appears challenging.

On the other hand, Max Verstappen aims to turn his disappointing season around. Having won yesterday's sprint, he secured pole position for the race. If he can make a strong start, he may prove difficult to catch.

The race is set to begin at 8 PM local time (1 PM BST), and fans are eager to see if Antonelli will inch closer to his historic achievement.
