Nico Hülkenberg finished seventh in Las Vegas after a strong tyre-management drive, while teammate Gabriel Bortoleto retired on lap one after misjudging his braking and triggering a collision. The result brings Sauber within five points of Haas with two races left.
Pierre Gasly endured another difficult weekend at the Singapore Grand Prix, finishing 19th as Alpine’s point drought stretched to five races. With Franco Colapinto in 16th, the team now turns its attention to Austin for a potential rebound.
