Verstappen wins Singapore GP as Hamilton finishes sixth

His race engineer, Gianpiero Lambiase, joined him in the victory, which could be their last together.
Lambiase is expected to leave Red Bull for McLaren, and Tom Hart is set to replace him.

The article says Hamilton's decision was the main mistake, as he then had to complete a long stint on soft tyres.
