00:00
We've got three, four, five lights on ahead of the drivers.
00:03
It's lights out and away we go.
00:05
That's an excellent start from Lando Norris and it's a brilliant start too from Lewis Hamilton.
00:09
But he's not going to cut off Max Verstappen into Turn 1 as Lando Norris leads.
00:14
From Verstappen, going wide there is the Aston Martin of Fernando Alonso.
00:18
A little bit of a kerfuffle going on down at Turn 1, but Norris got away very well.
00:23
From Verstappen, from Hamilton, from Russell and Hülkenberg, who's gone ahead of Oscar Piastri.
00:27
Then comes Fernando Alonso and then the Ferrari of Charles Leclerc.
00:31
Let's have a look at the race start then.
00:32
Said it was an excellent start for Lando Norris.
00:35
And you can see there, he clearly gets away quicker than Max Verstappen,
00:39
who was busy covering rather than challenging.
00:42
He was. And Max goes through, keeps the car in play.
00:46
Did Piastri, I think so, just about.
00:49
And they've gone round the penalty zone.
00:51
It was the two Spaniards, basically, going round the penalty zone and somebody else behind them.
00:56
And let's have a look at this start then.
01:01
You live on your wits on the start.
01:03
You know, you can't think about anything.
01:04
You just, you literally maneuver the car.
01:08
And so Alonso got a great big slide at the back going on and had to bail out really early.
01:16
He did. It didn't cost him a place.
01:18
It was clever thinking by Fernando Alonso, kept the speed.
01:21
Look at Colopinto down the inside.
01:24
That was a super move there, William.
01:26
What's he doing?
01:28
Well, it didn't please Alex Albon, but I tell you what, I rather enjoyed that.
01:32
That was a super move from the Argentine.
01:35
Yeah, as you said, Albon did not see it the same way.
01:40
So that's Sainz then.
01:42
Oh, it's all going very difficult, isn't it?
01:44
As soon as you're a little bit out of sync with the pack,
01:47
you fall through so quickly if you're not careful.
01:53
This is Carlos Sainz, we saw him heading down the straight there,
01:57
watching Sergio Perez battling with Yuki Tsunoda.
02:01
Let's go on board with Oscar Piastri, race winner last time out.
02:05
Got passed at the start by Hülkenberg.
02:07
Traditional Singapore overtake as he slung it down the inside.
02:11
And sporting a new set of tyres.
02:14
It's all very wobbly on the curves, isn't it, for Lewis Hamilton.
02:17
Look at the oscillations on that.
02:19
Yeah, they run about 23 PSI, but they're wide tyres.
02:22
They're ahead of them when Albon finally pits, so they've covered that one off.
02:25
I would have thought as the track continues to rubber in,
02:31
and they get rid of the fuel load, and especially the cars are a bit more down-forced,
02:34
they will fire up the hard compound tyres just fine.
02:37
Still hasn't cleared Joe Guanyu.
02:39
This is the pain he's going to take coming through there.
02:42
And he's in the 38s when he should be in the 36s.
02:45
Absolutely, but look, he's gaining and he's gaining on Joe Guanyu
02:48
as we head down Raffles Boulevard past the hotels and the shopping centre.
02:52
He's picked up a nice little purchase there to put that Ferrari up into 16th.
02:57
As we're on board with Lewis Hamilton after his pit stop,
03:01
he has some overtaking to do.
03:03
And the first driver ahead of him that he can get close to is Kevin Magnussen.
03:07
He pulls out to the right-hand side and makes that move before the corner.
03:12
To be honest, Verstappen could pit now,
03:14
and Lando could probably stay out for another three or four laps
03:16
and still be clearly ahead of Verstappen when he pits.
03:20
Here comes Carlos Sainz.
03:22
And eventually, he gets his man.
03:26
Norris is just a plain second a lap faster than Verstappen.
03:31
That McLaren works so, so well in free air.
03:34
And Lewis Hamilton wants a bit more free air and cleaner air as well.
03:37
And he's got past Esteban Ocon.
03:39
That's a bit too early.
03:41
We are one of the earlier stoppers, but not the earliest.
03:45
Yeah, a bit too early there.
03:47
Way too short.
03:49
Yeah.
03:50
He's saying Charles Leclerc has finally got past Fernando Alonso into Turn 16.
03:56
He's made that stick as we watch now.
03:58
Yuki Tsunoda passed by Lewis Hamilton,
04:01
who goes very wide at Turn 16.
04:03
And that just gives the place back to Tsunoda again.
04:06
This is the defensive job that Nico Hülkenberg is doing.
04:09
It's doing wonders, I'm sure, for his race.
04:12
But as you say, wrecking at Charles Leclerc's.
04:14
But he wouldn't have been down in ninth place
04:17
if his tires gave him enough grip in a Turn 1.
04:19
But they've got enough grip there going into the right hander at Turn 16.
04:23
And finally, Charles Leclerc can get past the Haas.
04:27
He is up into fourth place.
04:28
And he's lost some front down force.
04:30
Verstappen comes out wheel to wheel here,
04:33
neck and neck with Charles Leclerc.
04:35
Leclerc!
04:36
Oh, that was touch and go.
04:39
Gets ahead of Max Verstappen.
04:41
And whilst Charles Leclerc has not pitted yet,
04:43
the last thing Red Bull really wanted is Verstappen to be stuck behind the Ferrari.
04:47
So is this where Lando Norris thought that he'd hit the wall?
04:50
Yeah.
04:52
And how close is it?
04:53
There's the lock-up, there's the lock-up.
04:55
Oh!
04:58
He might have brushed it, but he didn't bang it.
04:59
Yeah. Wow.
05:01
Lucky escape.
05:03
He nerfed it, didn't he?
05:04
But it was quite soft, the wall was quite soft there.
05:07
Closest driver in the championship to him, as we see George Russell.
05:11
Once again, trying to get it closer to Charles Leclerc.
05:14
Turn 16, he's got to go around the outside, goes off the track.
05:17
As Charles Leclerc decided, you are not passing me at this particular moment.
05:21
And he's going to get frustrated once more.
05:24
Piastri will be flying.
05:25
He'll have so much more grip than Hamilton and DRS.
05:29
And he needs to lunge him early.
05:31
He wants to get after George Russell.
05:33
And he has done so.
05:35
Hamilton made him go the long way round.
05:37
The long way round was still short enough.
05:40
Miles an hour onto the Raffles Boulevard,
05:42
where you'll approach the top speed in this race
05:45
of just over 190 miles an hour.
05:47
DRS assisting Oscar Piastri on his way.
05:51
And once again, he's going to have to go the long way round.
05:52
And once again, he does go the long way round.
05:54
And George Russell tries to fight that out.
05:57
But to the cheers of the crowds who line the streets down there in the pack grandstands,
06:01
Piastri has got past.
06:03
I tell you what, it's like a second home race for Australian motorsport fans.
06:08
Singapore...
06:10
That's Daniel Ricciardo, who sees Esteban Ocon down the inside.
06:14
And then Kevin Magnussen straight away.
06:17
Charlie Leclerc just took 2.4 seconds out of Lewis Hamilton on the previous lap.
06:22
That's Lando Norris.
06:25
Did he hit the wall here?
06:27
He did.
06:28
Oh!
06:29
That's... You remember when George Russell hit the wall on the other side of the track last year?
06:34
Well, Lando has just hit the wall on the right-hand side.
06:38
Let's go back to that in a couple of moments.
06:40
This is Ricciardo really struggling on his tyres out there.
06:43
And Lance Stroll getting past in the Aston Martin.
06:46
Ricciardo has now pitted.
06:48
Yeah, there's a little right kink into that turn.
06:50
We're heading towards Turn 7.
06:52
Here goes Charles Leclerc down the inside on Lewis Hamilton.
06:55
Did not fight that.
06:56
One I.O. to Lewis Hamilton because he realised he couldn't,
06:59
given the performance in tyres to Charles Leclerc's advantage.
07:03
There was nothing really Hamilton could do about that.
07:04
Leclerc is up into the top five.
07:07
And he is driving very slowly.
07:09
There'll be white flags waving everywhere to say,
07:11
slow car ahead.
07:14
And, yeah.
07:15
And he's hit the wall on the exit of Turn 5, I'm told.
07:19
So, that's literally, he's probably just taken the tyre off the rim,
07:24
or actually both broken the bead on the rim.
07:27
There's Turn 5.
07:31
Wow, that wasn't much of a hit, was it?
07:32
No, it wasn't.
07:33
But it's enough to...
07:36
We heard it.
07:37
Yeah.
07:39
Felt it move the wall a touch.
07:41
Bang.
07:43
It hit it a bit harder than it first looked.
07:46
I have understeer and I have oversteer.
07:51
You've got a bit of everything there, George.
07:52
This town, this could be my town.
07:54
And this could be my moment.
07:56
And just like he did in Zandvoort,
07:58
Lando Norris has laid down a statement win here in Singapore tonight.
08:03
Lando Norris wins the Singapore Grand Prix.
08:07
And once again, he wins by a distance.
08:11
It is the third Grand Prix win of the season for Lando Norris.
08:15
It is not the fastest lap, though.
08:17
Daniel Ricciardo has got that in what could be his final race.
08:22
Max Verstappen will come home to take second place
08:25
to spoil the McLaren 1-2
08:26
and to keep as much of a charge going in his championship defence.
08:32
Ricciardo, of course, is one of them.
08:33
Good job.
08:34
Yeah, I'll have a nice afternoon.
08:38
Amazing car, weekend.
08:39
Thank you very much, everyone.
08:41
I won't have any more.
08:43
Let's keep pushing.
