Best race to the first corner of the season.

 

[ENTERSANDMAN13]

These regulation changes can't come soon enough..

 

[Shoe67]

Vettel setting fast lap on old tires. That man is completely on another level than all the other drivers out here

 

[Danny]

Very hard to judge tyres here. Doesn't sound like there's much between them.

 

[Yukon]

As cool as a night race is and how it brings a different challenge to the drivers. I still think the Singapore Street Circuit looks much better during the day.

 

[Shoe67]

Vettel in to pit. Still 8+seconds ahead.

 

[NissanSkylineN1]

For 50 yards.

For like .5 seconds

Wait, you guys don't ignore Vettel's presence anymore? Makes the race more interesting. I exclude him from the race and it turns much more exciting.

 

[Blitz24]

I just love the ambiance at Singapore. All I'm noticing is the funny in-car radio (see: Hulkenberg).

Di Resta is doing a fine job. 👍

 

[Shoe67]

Di Resta is doing a fine job. 👍

20 laps in and still hasn't pitted. How is he getting twice the tire life everyone else is?

 

[Rossell2]

Just remember 8 SCs in 5 years.

This race can still be turned on its head.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Here comes the SC but doubt it will do much

 

[Blitz24]

Safety Car. Riccardo under the stands.

 

[Panoz]

Ricciardo put it in the barrier and the safety car is out.

 

[Danny]

Oh man. At Tom Jones in the pits: 'they'll be throwing their Nicos at him'. Oh, brilliant.

 

[Rossell2]

Just remember 8 SCs in 5 years.

This race can still be turned on its head.

I officially have a commentators curse.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Have some bits of Toro Rosso with your safety barrier.

I officially have a commentators curse.

now if you can just say something about a certain RBR combined with a gearbox failure of some sort *cough*

Paul Di Resta and FI are the big winners of that Safety car I'd say since they pulled out 1.5x the life of everyone else.

 

[Rossell2]

Now you mention it, Vettel is doing really well this race, that new gearbox is doing wonders.

 

[Barra333]

Such a long SC period , given that the wreckage was cleared 2 laps ago...
Get on with it!!

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Those back markers are the reason it's taking so long.

So slow they can't even catch up during a caution .

 

[Rossell2]

Its a day for it to be honest. Blancpain 1000 going on at the moment, had a massive crash with a Ferrari and it took the marshalls 10 minutes to acknowledge there was debris on the track and bring an SC out.

"Is that a stopped car or debris?"

"It could be a hallucination."

"Oh wait, 3 guys just blew a tire there, I think we should send the SC out, just to be safe."

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

So slow they can't even catch up during a caution .

Indeed

 

[TheBook]

This one's probably going to hit 2 hours at 59 or 60 laps. I'll be surprised if this goes the full distance.

 

[Shoe67]

Vettel already opening a gap. He is amazing. Love watching him race.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

poor Grosjean
