Daniel would be excellent for media events.
Mercedes locking up the second row is a big surprise.
Nico out qualifying Ferrari is epic.
Fernando doing Fernando things.
Yuki is another shocker.

What's happened to Daniel Ricciardo? The theories to explain his sharp F1 decline
Daniel Ricciardo has had a sharp decline since his peak F1 years at Red Bull. Let's examine the theories to explain where it all went wrong.

So looks like Norris is going to be a lock for Pole. So the question is will he keep it through the first corner?
Also SKY seems to be implying that Daniel will be replaced by Liam after this race.
“Max didn’t leave me room.” 😉

Sky are just repeating what loads of articles and discussions have been saying this past week.
Sainz slapped with a 25K fine for cross the track after his crash without a Marshal's permission (half deferred till the end of the season if he keeps his nose clean).
The FIA are building themselves a nice little End of Year Party Fund with all these fines.
Overall, qualifying was something. Even with Sainz crashing, LeClerc's performance just plummeted while the Mercedes found new life. And Max 2nd means he might finally get the Singapore Monkey off his back depending on how McLaren's strategy plays out.

Yes it was an interesting one. The race could be fun to watch.

Hope Lewis can make it awkward for Max at the start to give Lando a chance at the win. Otherwise the pole curse might continue for Lando.
Great qualifying for The Hulk. Out qualifying that car for sure.

At least to my ears Martin is giving a significantly less biased commentary this season. I haven't had cause to really be annoyed by him in the same way as David and Will eternally wave the Union Jack.
You can actually hear Martin catch himself when the urge to be biased creeps in. Maybe it's just me.
I found it so annoying when he was commentating on Max's final qualifying lap. The guy never won anything, but describes word for words what he was doing. Last week, Karum was just as annoying. I mean it's not radio, we can all see.

I hear you. We know who had the Cat Like Reflexes out there, and it wasn't David or Martin....
Tease a cat long enough, the tiger inside awakes.. I think the FIA might just have teased a tad too much.. Lewis and Max.. Them 2 on the same side, v the FIA.. I wouldn't want to be be the bloke running the FIA..
Indeed, and it is the funniest thing, considering some of Lewis fans have a meltdown and froth at the mouth regarding the anything Max does or doesn't. There is a lot of respect and camaraderie between them all. And quite aligned on this situation.
Good cut clip and just hilarious. The closing by Max 😂😂 But Landos face and that of Lewis is just hilarious.
What an absolutely dominating performance by Lando. At times over a half-minute ahead of Max. Would have had the hat trick if Daniel was not an ass and pitted (for the fourth time) for Softs to steal Fastest Lap at the end to help Max.
Race overall was boring as hell. Not worth getting up at 4:30 for, but w'ever.

Congratulations to all the drivers in the first ever SC Free/Fastest Singapore GP. A testament to their conditioning.
Congratulations to Lando on his first Grand Slam. McLaren on point with strategy.
Impressive drive from Max. Maximum Damage Limitation with some help from Daniel. Thanks Daniel.
On to COTA…..

Lawn bowls is more interesting, watching paint dry, that has to be the worst race in the last few years, nothing happened.. I got so bored I started googling and found out Ted Slotover is Ted Kravitz..
I was a snooze fest. No question. There was some history made though.
History should be interesting, this, this will put any historian to sleep, deep enough for a root canal..
1st Singapore GP with no SC. Also the fastest. A little bit above Root Canal. 😉
Yeah, was good for Daniel to go out with a bang. Between that and the points at Hungary that could make the difference for Lando. But why not, Daniel had nothing to loose.He lost Fastest Lap to Daniel on the final lap.
