Singapore Grand Prix 2013, Marina Bay - Race 13/19

Did ham/rosberg use the old tyres in which case they'll almost certainly hav a lot more in them. Vettel doesn't really just do enough, he tends to go relatively as fast as he can go in q2 where Hamilton(less so Rosberg) tends to gain a hell of a lot as he really only tries to do enough in Q2 to go through.

Not entirely sure the Merc has the required speed to beat Vettel, but would expect Hammy to improve noticeably, and Rosberg.
 
dammn Rosberg was crazy close, Vettel will be bricking it.

EDIT:- yup, Rosberg had Hamilton today, bad lap, different setup, bad day or just a track that favours Rosberg, he was sooooo damn close to getting Vettel, would have loved to see his face had he lost it... and the team all moving away from him.
 
Vet didn't even look like he was tying. Means set up was spot on. He'll walk this race, bar any mechanical issues, which is very rare these days.

Well assuming Button starts on the harder tyre(did he go out at all, wasn't really watching) he may end up holding up Vettel again. They are also afaik on the last race for the gearbox and they were protecting it last race so maybe. RBR and gearbox with a very hot race could add up to failure.... or not.

THankfully there is some footie on at the same time as I'm not expecting an awful lot from the race.

One run only in Q3 means he has a nice new set of tyres advantage over anyone else?

Race going to be super exciting again I see.
 
Looks like another lights to flag victory for finger boy - I cannot wait to watch the highlights on the BBC :rolleyes:
 
All we can hope for now is that vimto crashes out at the first turn or his gearbox blows up.

Not long till 2014...........................Thank god.

Each week you post the same thing. Watching paint dry must be an awkward hobby to explain to friends and family.
