    The Singapore Grand Prix certainly threw up plenty of surprises with unexpected retirements, feisty fighting talk from Max Verstappen, and a spectator getting a little too close to the action.

    With Sebastian Vettel winning and Lewis Hamilton retiring, there could be a few more twists and turns in the title race to come.

    That's all from us but there is not long to wait for the next race, with our coverage of the Japanese GP beginning with practice on Friday at the delightful hour of 01:00 BST. Join us then!

    Ferrari boss Maurizio Arrivabene set a target of three race wins this season, and that has now been achieved thanks to Sebastian Vettel. 

    It is a moment to celebrate for Arrivabene, but he also may be regretting a few words he said in pre-season.

    When asked what he would do if Ferrari won four races this year, he quipped: "I will run without shoes to the Maranello hills."

    With the Japanese GP up in just seven days, it might not be long before Arrivabene has to make good on his bet...

  4. Verstappen right to refuse order - Toro Rosso bosspublished at 16:11

    Toro Rosso team principal Franz Tost says that Max Verstappen was correct to refuse the order given to him by the team.

    He told Sky Sports: "Carlos had newer tyres so we thought we could swap positions.

    "But Max was right because Carlos was not closing up. Carlos was always four or five-tenths back. If he wants to swap positions, he needs to be closer."

  5. I wanted shot at Perez - Sainzpublished at 16:07 British Summer Time 20 September 2015

    Sainz, unsurprisingly, does not agree:

    "Let the guy on newer tyre have shot," he said. "I wanted that shot and he never gave it to me. 

    "It is not an issue for me."

  6. No reason to let Sainz past - Verstappenpublished at 16:06 British Summer Time 20 September 2015

    Right, so let's hear some more from Toro Rosso about Max Verstappen's refusal to let team-mate Carlos Sainz pass him in the closing stages.

    The teenager had been ordered to let Sainz go by his team so the Spaniard could attack Force India's Sergio Perez.

    First up, Verstappen himself.

    He told Sky Sports: "The whole race I had good pace so for me there was no reason to let him past.

    "If it was the other way round, I think he would do the same thing."

    There is a small positive of closing gap but it has been a disappointing weekend. It was the toughest race of the year.

    Is Mercedes' vice-like grip on Formula 1 loosening? There has been no Mercedes on the podium in two of the last four races.

    Mercedes F1 team boss Toto Wolff has described this weekend in Singapore as "character building" and one that will make them "strong".

    Ferrari, though, will have seen a chink in their armour.

    Andrew Yee:  Good drive by Verstappen but ignored team orders to let team-mate past. He is a teenager so could he be grounded??  

    Danny Janssen:  Weren't team orders supposed to be banned? Would have been ridiculous if he would have obeyed, he deserved the position he finished at.

    Carlos Sainz added that he “did not want any polemics” to follow on from the incident, while Max Verstappen said he did not let Sainz past because it had not been explained to him why he should do so.

  12. Toro Rosso disputepublished at 15:43

    Toro Rosso's Carlos Sainz has just been speaking to BBC Sport's Lee McKenzie about Max Vertspappen's refusal to let him past in the closing stages, as he had been ordered to by the team.

    Sainz wanted to overtake Verstappen so he could attack Force India's Sergio Perez.

    Sainz said: "I felt I could get past the Force India but it's his choice.I was feeling very confident that I could do it but he decided not to. I am still wanting the team to do the best they can.

    "This year I have let him by three or four times. He was told to let me by four times and didn't. It's a bit of a pain."

    I'm intrigued to see what the fallout will be from Max Verstappen appearing to not obey team orders. What are your thoughts?

    A milestone for Sebastian Vettel as he equals Michael Schumacher's record of three wins in his first season at Ferrari.

    With six races remaining, you would not bet against him adding to that before the end of the year.

    The party on Sunday night. We will have some drinks, definitely. My drink bottle failed halfway through the race so I am quite thirsty. If we have more weekends like this, yes we can catch Mercedes. Massive attack. Maybe we can make the impossible possible - we will definitely go for it.

    We hope this is a sign of the future. Saturday I struggled for whatever reason, I was surprised to finish third in qualifying and today was a struggle again and I had no chance to do anything about first or second.

    Seb experimented a bit today - at the start of the race he just went. If there was no safety car we could have been close for the undercut but the two safety cars came at pretty crucial times. It was really good to back up qualifying. We matched Seb in race pace and we have got to be pretty happy.

    "It must be one of my best races. It was pretty intense. Lots of pressure form behind, Daniel had a very good race looking after his tyres. Second stint I was dictating the pace. From then, I was trying to control the gap. We had a really great weekend."
