Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel put himself in pole position to retake the Formula One lead from Lewis Hamilton after setting the fastest lap in qualifying for the Singapore Grand Prix on Saturday.

Championship leader Hamilton, who leads the German by three points with seven rounds remaining, qualified his Mercedes only fifth for Sunday’s night race.

Dutch teenager Max Verstappen will start second for Red Bull, after going fastest in the first two phases of qualifying, with Australian team-mate Daniel Ricciardo third and Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen fourth.

Vettel is a four-time winner in Singapore and the pole was also his fourth in the city state.
