2012 Singaporean GP - Marina Bay

[zeph]

Everybody coming in for fresh tires under the SC except Alonso? Hope that is not a mistake.

[Hail22]

Malfunctionado has a hydraulic issue.

[astracrazy]

Kimi going to be a big winner from the safety car period? pitted bang on q

edit: no i don't think so actually

works out for Alonso more than anything. God his getting some luck this year - he truly must have magic dust

I don't think so – I think Alonso is the only one who still has to pit now.

you could be right actually. Either pit or Canada again?

safety car till end of race.

[Hail22]

If Alonso loses positions from that, definitely Ferrari SUCK at strategies

[FrukostScones]

No, so unfortunately a good call from Ferrari as those tyres won't need to finish the race distance.

[Joie de vivre]

and why again is the safety car on the track?

[beelsebob]

Yep, unless Alonso blows up, that's championship gone for sure.

[astracrazy]

why do they have so many laps here when every year we have a safety car and every year its nip and tuck?

[GrizzleBoy]

I keep seeing people laud alonso for being unbelievable this year, but i dont see it, he's done nothing that hamilton hasn't....he lucked into his championships in 05,06 due to his competitors problems and the same this year.
As for mclaren, there not a championship winning team, there record shows that and there ability to always --- up any given situation.

Then maybe you should have a look at this:

Sure he has been lucky, but luck favors the prepared. And nobody is better prepared than Alonso.

Those stats mean nothing by themselves.

They don't tell you that the very reason he has many of the points he has is other cars/pit crews in front of his have had TERRIBLE unreliability, regardless of what the other drivers were doing.

Even today he's been gifted a podium due to other teams technical faults.

[astracrazy]

buttons having a good go at helping hamilton hahaha

[Hail22]

Ferrari, Mclaren, SFI, Lotus told they can go to Q setup for fuel burn....
