I don't expect much overtaking, but SC periods are almost certain to come up and that could upset the order quite a bit. Barring any drama, RBR should wrap up this one, possibly with Kubica and Alonso tickling them. Rosberg will also be a man to watch.

Seb Vettel is the only of the top 5 title contenders who cannot possibly end up leading the championship after Singapore.

RBR suffer from brake wear more than the other guys. Singapore is notoriously bad for brakes + heavy fuel will exacerbate it.

Hamilton won this race last year in a car which was much less than ideal. People (including myself) have said that Singapore is Red Bull territory, but I'm not counting McLaren out yet. I think more will be told once we see the first practice sessions.

As fine a drive as it may have been from Hamilton, he was sooo lucky, though. Without the red flag in Q3, Vettel and/or Rosberg would have put his pole position under serious threat. And then both were very unlucky in the race, with Rosberg having to serve a drive-through after an SC-period (his own fault, but still) and Vettel penalized for an imaginary infringement. That only left Glock and Alonso as serious contenders, and their cars were no match for the McLaren.

And there will be fuel problem in McLaren?


Seems RBR will be the safest bet. But Hamilton and Alonso likes these track, so I have to see FP1,2 & 3 to say who will win

FP1 & FP2 times are usually useless in all honesty. I would think Red Bull should be strong but I just have a hunch about their high brake wear. Hamilton flew around here last year (team mate comparisons are usually best and Kova was nowhere). Alonso was looking good in 2008 in qualifying until he had a problem and then we all know what happened...

And can we cut the whole fuel problem thing. Its not been proved and its just immature.
