Gees it shows how bad this race is when no-one here has even commented about it yet.
My boy & I have only watched the first 1hr & it has been such a snore fest even with it being a wet race.
Without the lack of any real championship fight it also has proven to me how out of step this track is especially for these new cars.
They look really slow as this track just has too many corners & with most being 90' it makes dry lap times draw the race out to the point it nearly goes time certain anyway.

I found the race pretty boring. Watching Max and Hamilton try and improve from their mistakes was the only interesting part for me.

The tracks inability to dry hamstrung and good racing. IF they didnt act so risk adverse and raced with the full wet it could have been a different story with the possibility of tyre strategy from wet > inter > dry providing a real mix up.

Singapore is just Monaco in Asia.

I love Singapore, so I might take a look next year if I can convince a mate to go. :D

I think waiting until it was dry enough for the inter was a mistake, excitement wise. As Will Buxton said, what's the point in the full wet tyre if you're going to wait until it's so dry that you don't need it.

The title race is over but there's still some excitement further down. McLaren took lumps out of Alpine in the constructors and overtook them. Russell and Sainz are having a ding dong battle. Can Hamilton catch Russell. Can Mick do anything half decent that will save his seat. Can Latifi catch De Vries even though he isn't on the track! :D
