Re: 2017 Singapore Grand Prix Race Thread
Nope, Vettel has to win it unless its a DNF for Hamilton. I have a sneaking suspicion that Hamilton's car will fail like in 2015. Reliability will be the dark horse and aside from 2007, 2008 and 2015, he's always had worse relaibility than his title rivals. Ferrari are usually bulletproof when it c...

I can't help but think Max will be sold down the river to force Vettel into the pits while Ricciardo goes long and pits under the inevitable safety car.

Ferrari will be competitive during the race. All the evidence points to that being the case. There really isn't much between the two cars during a race for most of the year. May the best man win.
