Great result for Toyota as well!! Besides Japan, I think they can also consider Singapore as their Home Race too!

[Robo]

looking at the way hamilton handles the car he truly deserve the win.

[Ithunk]

fernando alonso dedicates his victory to flavio

[Sunnycrowe]

90% is due to car n team tactics, while driver is only 10%....

 

Take Jenson button for example..... las yr only got 3 to 5 pts (for the whole season)... this year oredi got 84 pts with 3 more races to go....

[Ithunk]

nope not at all.....he got first last year....and 3rd this year

 

2 podiums.....so its the driver....not the car

[Ithunk]

anyway he is moving to ferrari next year

[Stary]

It seems that for the Singapore race, as long you focus and don't screw up by making silly mistakes, you should be able to get some good points.

 

This is because for sure the Safety car will come out and this circuit is very prone for driver (or car) to make mistakes (or mechanical failures). So just don't screw up and let others make mistake and that's it.

well but it is true FA made the podium his.....from fifth in qualifying....

 

then 4th during the race then 3rd

very much reflects about life in Singapore... just manouver and dun screw up.. you will be ok.. the "race" platform is well lighted up, caged, precision handling is required with no room for error or diversion... and once you crash or breakdown.. you are out of the game..

 

Uniquely Singapore!

Bravo .. well said ...

[KapitanE]

Hamilton's team strategy was fantastic... did you people see the first pit stop he made..... into the pit, out of the pit, without losing his first position. That was truly great planning...

It's down to team effort. No one man or car can do it on his own.

This is his only podium for this season so far. Having a good driver is one thing, having a good car is another. There are approx. 700 over ppl working on the car and behind the scenes. It's all team effort.

[Babyt]

i think its true...the driver driving the car just need to accelerate or brake...its more of team effort and coordination via radio....the team can see how the car is moving on the track from overview which the driver cant see and can provide better advice via radio?

Yes, that's what Lightning Mcqueen learnt....

 

On another note, did you notice the large amount of debris popping up from under the cars? I'm not just talking about detached wing mirrors, but actual flakes of stuff coming off the tires.....

[Watwheels]

I think the roads are not properly cleaned after the Porsche race. Those paper like flakes could be from celebrations party "flakes" or party paper. So when F1 cars hit the circuit these "debris" get thrown around becos of the wall that circled the circuit, debris hit the wall and get bounced back onto the roads.

[Jamesc]

I think its not the car or the driver but the

 

strategy!

 

Bring back flavio, we need more cheats

 

in sports!
