When Sebastian Vettel misjudged his move across the track at the start of the Singapore Grand Prix last weekend, he robbed us of what could have been a great contest. Red Bull was genuinely competitive for the fi rst time this season and rain brought Lewis Hamilton into the equation. He hasn’t lost a rain-a ected GP since Hungary 2014 (and a proper wet event since Brazil in ’12), so the Mercedes’ apparent unease around Marina Bay would have been minimised. A fi ght between the two most successful drivers of the last decade and the exciting Red Bull duo was a tantalising prospect, even around a circuit on which overtaking is tough. As it was, Vettel moved too far left, presumably unaware that Max Verstappen and Kimi Raikkonen were there. The ensuing crash took out three key players, not to mention the Fernando Alonso wildcard, and left Hamilton to score a relatively easy victory.
