2023 Singapore Grand Prix - Marina Bay, Sep 15 -17

[ringo]

Ferrari probably wondering what could have been if this TD was applied from 2022!
Haas is impressive indeed. Tyre warm up kings.
Russel can go on pole. I think Lewis isnt threatening him this weekend.

in the end, the crash may have saved Alonso from getting kicked out in Q1, at least. It was close between him, Hamilton, Norris and Stroll

They were all safe, the only drivers who could drop out in Q1 were:
- Bottas, Zhou, Sargeant (all 100% out as they already had finished their laps)
- Stroll who did not improve enough and would have been out even without the crash
- Albon (in the hot seat and already done his lap)
- Piastri (still going)
everyone else was going to Q2.

Stroll and Alonso were within half a tenth after S2, Piastri one tenth quicker

Russel showing some real pace here!!
Almost got Sainz.
Sainz is on fire. He has Leclerc's ticket.

Q3 more exciting with ferrari vs mclaren vs mercedes.

But i feel Hamilton is still a big threat for the win. If he has a good start.

With Russell’s lack of spatial awareness i predict chaos in T1

Dang Russell slapping half a second on Lewis. Are they having him run experimental setups again?

All of the RB slander comes out of the crawl space what a shocker been a while waiting hasn't it

No slander from me, the Red Bulls simply don't look like the rocket ships they've
been all season long. It's why I said it could be track specific or the technical
directives have taken something away from the RB19.

Not track specific. Smooth track and same as Baku where they dominated, they simply are slow on 1 lap but race pace is good.

Maybe they should put Lawson in that other seat, he could go faster

should put him in merc, ham slacking all weekend as well

Good excuse. All weekend George was on it.

[PlatinumZealot]

Hamilton destroyed by Russell all weekend there! Just poor tyre preparation from him as always.

He might be beastly in the race tho!

[ringo]

Shifting focus from Max i see? Both he and Checo should be dunped for Lawson and Yuki for this performance!

[TFSA]

Max has 3 potential impeedings he has to deal with - not just 2 (i don't think the one of Car 2 was mentioned on stream).

21:14 - Impeeding cars at Pit Exit
21:17 - Impeeding Car 2 between T17/18
21:57 - Impeeding Car 22 between T3/4

Why is everybody sure that this RB mess is due to the TD? Do we have some proof that their woes are down to this?

I mean, it could be just an off-weekend. Mercedes used to have these as well during their reign era.

[InsaneX_Badger]

How bad was the impeeding on each case? Likelihood of penalties or just reprimands?

Well, the one incident with Tsunoda is pretty slam dunk, if you ask me. The one at the pitlane is also quite sus, but I'm not familiar with the rules there, there was green light but MV was stationary for some seconds. I'm not aware of what happened with the third one.
