Is the race likely to be wet? A nice mixed up grid would be cool

 

[Kenny]

Weather meant to be ok tomorrow. Grid will be a bit mixed anyway as the Red Bulls, Renaults and Alonso starting from the back of the grid

 

[Carrotdude]

Might end up being a Sunday morning quali at this rate

 

[The Bear]

In this situation can they not get a couple of lower formula cars to trundle round and clear the water?

 

[Kenny]

Restarting at 3.40

 

[Carrotdude]

Sauber have become a bit of a joke this season, falling further and further behind. Earlier this season they were at least hanging on to the back of the pack

Ha ha... Max V has forced his way past Vettel on the warm up lap

 

[darlowolf64]

Ferrari are 8th and 9th in Q3 with only a minute left

 

[darlowolf64]

Pole for Hamilton, 69 in total

 

[Kenny]

So after grids pens it will be

Hamilton
Stroll
Ocon

 

[Kenny]

Who is this mad Italian doing the interviews!

Vettel will start 6th. Dry race and he will be 2nd quite quickly I reckon.

Yeah it won't take him long, more chance of getting caught in trouble at turn 1 from there though

 

[Kenny]

Big job for Bottas. He needs to keep Seb behind him.

 

[Nando]

Penalty for Stoffel now too. Lewis is the only person on the grid to start where he actually qualified.

 

[Carrotdude]

Ricciardo is very very good, having an absolute stormer

 

[The Bear]

Another pretty dull race IMO.

Hamilton wins yet absolutely no mention from Croft/Bundle that he now leads the Championship again. Bizarre.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

They certainly were mentioning that on the radio! Saying that, I think the lead is temporary, unless Mercedes have something very special in line for Singapore. That circuit really suits Ferrari and Red Bull.

Four years ago, I was going to take Squeeze to Singapore for the GP, but her asthma and the Indonesian logging smog made it not possible. Real shame. Oh well, maybe one day,

Mentioned it loads of times. At one point the projected points were on screen and they talked about it.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

I only watched the last 8 laps and definitely heard it mentioned that Hamilton was leading the championship, think they said it was the first time he's done so this season?
