Formula One's First Night Race - Singapore GP Thread

Hamilton very very lucky to make final qualifying in 10th as Alonso's very quick car packs up.

Massa 6/10ths of a second quicker than Hamilton in final qualifying on a track where overtaking looks a nightmare....worrying for Lewis

It's okay really. Granted if Massa wins he will then be leading the Championship, but only by 1 point if Lewis is second. With three races to go it would still be very close. The important thing is, if he's going to lose points to Massa, to make sure its as few as possible.

Besides, it could work massivly to his advantage if he gets ahead into T1. If Massa is low fueled and stuck behind Hamilton it'll hurt his pit stop strategy.

Massa is awesome when he leads from the start but doesn't seem to have the aggression that Hamilton has to work his way through the field. As you say Hamilton will either have to take him by turn one or hope he has enough fuel to do enough laps to overhaul whatever lead Massa builds up by his 1st pitstop.

I think this race is either gonna be won in the pits or by the car that doesn't fail (this looks a really punishing circuit) or hit a wall. I think there may be a few incidents and safety cars so even if the actual racing may not be good there should be lots of interest...looking forward to it

Fingers crossed Massa's car shrapnels a rod :yahoo:

It will be crap, hardly anywhere to overtake and the FIA (Ferrari International Assistance) will probably change the result afterwards anyway if a red car doesn't win.

I saw the build up Saturday and I don't like the look of those concrete bumps on the edge of the chicanes. They look very nasty and could rip the guts out of any car that strays offline there.

Massa's just f***ed it up

 

[vegster]

I'm sure they will re-instate him as winner

Poor old Massa, not really his fault.
