Singapore Gp

Shame that we were denied a duel yet again, but on the other hand I kinda feel that now it's slightly more 'even' in terms of reliability, and the points standings reflect that too. You'd have to say Lewis is strong favourite now, but those Mercs are so unreliable you can't be sure.

I think if Lewis had shouted 'Dammit' on the team radio like Nico did, many of you would have a field day about how immature he is!

Great drive by Vergne. And after the race, for the first time ever, BBC interviewed him!!! Good drive by Massa too.

I wouldn't, just prooves how competitive they are, we all knew and so did nico that if he stood any chance if beating lewis in Singapore, he needed pole. So he and I and possibly so many knew, his race was only good for second at that point. I must admit though Jem, this is the first race all yeah that Nicos body language,attitude and just all out presence were basically insulting. You could tell he wasn't happy one bit. This has changed my opinion on Rosberg coming into the last few races. I know iam not a f1 driver, I do t know what they go through. But I know if I acted with that body language at work, someone would tell me to simply "harden up princess". These guys are doing something they absolutly love to begin with, so that bad luck comes with it, take it on the chin. He was a different man this race and so was lewis. Nico knows his task is 20x harder now and that mental edge i and so many said he had, has been shot down. Lewis now can't get to comfortable now, he has to keep attacking like this. Seb was wondering why lewis passed him the way he did and why he was so "urgent" to get back into the lead. Well I can remember a young German being exactly the same. Lewis is hungry now and isn't taking anything for chance, he himself was a different driver this weekend. The one thing that did p**s me of was the way merc were responding to lewis when he was complaining about his tyres. What if he put it in the wall? Bet they would've wished they listened to him then, he was worried about another safety car and why wouldn't you be? A driver won't and doesn't want to pit unless they really have to.

Vergne has a ripper race, very entertaining, especially at one point he passed like 4 cars in two corners.

Course he did. Bottas lost his power steering. So take that into account, Bottas drove quite well.

that's racing...

Well then that's the soul reason Massa beat Bottas. Otherwise Massa would've finished behind Bottas again, buts that's racing.
