I dont think Norris deserves a place.
Hamilton had nowhere to go. No point in ruining your car over the curbs. He was side by side with russel not norris. But anyhow the race is young.
It looked like he deliberately braked late enough to conceivably not make the corner. It looks like it's not acceptable anymore
But he made the corner. And was aiming at the next apex. Russel didnt leave the space.

This race will be a boring one.

He would have made the corner but Russell was on his line

He didn't make the corner, he took to the run off as soon as possible

And he did it flat out.
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

You're arguing in bad faith. As Ringo has said he was aiming at the next apex. Meaning he would have taken the corner but due to Russell being on his line and avoiding a collision he took to the run off so of course "he didn't make the corner"

It's so much more fun to watch when the top 5 are almost within 5 seconds.

RedBull looks fast again. Seems it was just their operating window that suffered under the directive. It is still something to trouble them at least.

Ferraris aren’t quick
They're very much in total race management, as has typically been the case for any team running near the front at Singapore for several years now. They all could run much faster at the start if they wanted, but they choose not to usually in order to extend the stint on the tyres and hold the pack up... if anybody was to pit behind, they'd almost certainly get stuck in traffic and they'd loose time.

After 15-20 laps or so, the pace typically tends to go up and gaps start to grow... or if there's a safety car then extreme pace management starts to go out the window.

They should let Leclerc through. Even when he backed off, Sainz still didnt go far
