The Official Singapore GP Thread 2012***SPOILERS***

[Life Saab Itch]

The night race!


I have a funny feeling that Maldonado will win this.

Williams have always gone well here.


So, unless something odd happens, i actually predict a Button win, Webber second Hamilton 3rd, Alonso to crash out and Vettel to have an alternator failure.


Over to you.

[TheHeretic]

No idea.

Ask Chris Harris

[Tet]

I'll be going in person this year. First live GP for me since a British Grand Prix many, many years ago. I'm not sure the track layout favours McLaren, Red Bull have been off the pace lately, so I'm going to guess at Alonso, with Räikkönen close behind. If he can make it past the first lap, I think Grosjean might be in with an outside shout, too.

[tommy vercetti]

Come on Alonso! Championship is yours to lose now

[Mikey G]

Grosjean to crash out on lap 14 bringing out the safety car just as Raikonnen pits and comes out in the lead to win it.

Deja vu......... Of a sort.

Me, I think Lewis will dominate from start to finish. Pole to flag. Button won't be able to get the car dialled in and will end up 4th or so. Alonso second, Kimi third.

[Fonz]

Yes but when RG hits something noone will be at all suprised

[P-Jay]

McL 1-2 I think, LH followed by JB.

FA will take safe points and 3rd to 5th ish after failing to get to the front.

Webber & Vat close somewhere 3-5th.

I quite like him, just wish he will get this rookie phase out of the way and settle in to top level and I think he will be a race winner.

Whilst I'm hoping for a strong McMerc showing I think we'll see RBR strong here. With the difference between McLaren and Ferrari being down to drivers and fractions.

Well I will be there hoping that Vettel punts Schumacher off at the first corner.

Come one Kimi just the time to win one with two Macca's keeping Alonso down the order!

PS this is nostly good fun; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXw8is0U8Iw&fea... (but the Nazi bit is unnecessary & undermines the rest of the accurate message)

[Crafty_]

Alonso is gonna win I think.

I don't think its a mclaren track and red bull are struggling with the car, although I do expect them to go better here.

While your there Tet, go see 'Richard' that works the Bar at Hard Rock Cafe just off Orchard Road and ask to see his Camaro, I think you will be a fan...

[vonuber]

I always forget about this race, which is annoying as a I have a friend I could stay with for free in Singapore.
Anyway.
Maldonado for the win; no particular reason apart from watching this forum explode.

[El Guapo]

1. Alonso
2. Webber
3. Grosjean

[BelperJim]

1. Alonso
2. Vettel
3. Hamilton

[10 Pence Short]

1. Grosjean
2. Hamilton
3. Maldonado


Is the order in which they'll crash into one another and retire.

McMerc = McLaren Mercedes

I think Mercedes will be also-rans behind Lotus-Renault.

Rascal ...

No idea. Just hoping for another interesting race.

Like to see Herr Schumacher have a good one, just to get right up the nostrils of someone here who reputedly is not his greatest fan...
