So, seems Sebastian Vettel just passed Senna's wins in less races, funny I didn't hear much about that in the build up to the weekend. Well done Ferrari and Vettel. I hope they can take the fight to Mercedes now but I still feel Mercedes will have enough power at the remaining tracks. At least they'd no answer today great to see both Ferrari cars on the podium again after a long time. Congratulations Forza Ferrari.
The championship leader Lewis Hamilton thinks the power issues forced his retirement from the fourth position in the race from the Singapore Grand Prix.
The world champion he reported a sudden loss of power and quickly dropped through the field Hamilton eventually was told by Mercedes team to retire the car and save the engine. ' I was feeling super-optimistic in the car, I really was,' Lewis Hamilton said after the race. The Mercedes F1 team had struggled for pace all weekend in Singapore GP.
Surely driver of the day for all he struggled was the Dutchman Max Verstappen he stole the show with his incredible comeback and his awesome driving. The only 17 years old young dutchman has got a great future ahead of him if he can keep delivering. Congratulations Max Fantastic drive.
Well done on your 42nd victory Sebastian Vettel Only Michael Schumacher (91) and Alain Prost (51) ahead of him in the all-time winners list. This was a rare weekend to forget for Mercedes but we are expect them to be back to their dominant best in the next F1 GP in Japan Sunday 27 Sep 2015.
