Ladies and Gentlemen,


The Singapore GP is coming up this weekend, 15th round of the season at the Marina Bay Circuit of the island-country. And this is one spectacular venue, gaining since its inaugural 2008

debut a reputation for being the toughest challenge in Formula 1. Raced under the floodlights, it’s a test of endurance with its 24 tight corners and very high humidity and temperatures.

Italian GP 2016 - results - high risk, big reward for Alberto

Italian GP 2016 - QF

Ladies and Gentlemen,


Mercedes appears very dominant, more so than usual, but Ferrari introduced a new spec engine using all their last remaining 3-development tokens and they are closing in the silver machines. Both Seb and Kimi are now into their 5th and last engine for the season.

Pirelli is confident the super-soft compound will have a much longer life than in Spa, and Mercedes so far was able to do 20-lap race simulations in the red tyres. The fastest laps today were set in the super-softs (about 1.1 secs faster than the soft) except in FP1 where Mercedes was around 1 second quickest that the rest in the yellow-soft, such is their superiority.
