    So rumours of Max’s demise and perez’s rise were greatly exaggerated. Max messed up the set up in one race and was slower than checo (on a track that is checo’s favourite mind you) and people came crawling out of their holes claiming checo is quick and that the car screwed him(which is true but only to an extent) and that the only reason max was quick is because he had an illegal car and shit

    Perez doing his part in the constructors by getting a point (/s obviously). Hell, Danny scored as many points as Checo for RB by snatching that fastest lap away.

      You don’t get a point for FL if you’re not top 10, he just took it from Lando.

      But I defo agree with your sentiment lol

        I know, but Lando not getting it is worth more for Verstappen personally and for RB as a team it’s the same in point difference with McLaren.

    Haha DC just dumping a bunch of water on Norris in the post race interview.


    Probably one of the most uneventful Singapore GP’s in recent times. The cars in the front built up such a huge gap.

    Great drive by Piastri getting to the podium. Leclerc had a good drive as well.

    With the way F1TV kept bringing it up in their commentary, it does appear that this was Ricciardo’s last race.

      Did you see his post race interview? He was fighting back tears and so was the F1TV crew when they cut back to them. It seems the writing is on the wall.

      Bittersweet moment as someone younger definitely deserves a chance to show what they can do, but mid season oustings never feel good and Daniel is a fan favorite.

      Whatever happens I hope he has made peace with his time in F1. He’s made a lot of money and memories.

    Great drive by Nando Lorris, converted a pole position start finally! Colapinto had a great race until the pit stop sent him into the midfield blackhole, he could have gotten points today. I missed Leclerc overtaking Hamilton, guess the Ferrari got better as the race went on.
