Singapore lends itself to controversy and this year was no different. Was Ricciardo's qualifying disqualification too dramatic? Should just his lap have been wiped? Then Vettel overtook the pole-sitter and race-leader (and his team-mate) LeClerc using the undercut. Through taking the preferable pit stop strategy, Vettel was able to overtake his team-mate off the track. Was Vettel gifted the race by Ferrari trying to woo him into staying for another season, or to appease him or was it a mistake by the recent rookie?
There wasn't really much racing in the race. Ricciardo punctured himself on Giovannizi's car. Not long after Russell was pushed into the wall by Grosjean, thus ending an excellent finishing record for Williams. Close to the end Kvyat took out Raikkonen, bringing out the third, long Safety Car. We did fast-forward through a lot of this race.
Overall, what did LeClerc expect from Ferrari? He was initially angry but quickly kept it in check to explain what a good result it was for the team. Let's hope he can race again in Russia.
