It was Carlos Sainz’s good start to F1’s Singapore GP and Hamilton was in trouble

Carlos Sainz started at the post this Sunday at F1 Singapore GP before the one George Russell that I would try. Charles Leclerc, his teammate at Ferrari, started on soft rubber from third place while Charles and George They did it with medium tires. The strategy seemed clear: Charles had to attack Russell so that the two Ferraris could be placed in the first two positions, the best way to defend the lead and the possible first Ferrari victory of the year. And the Italians did it perfectly.

Carlos Sainz He nailed it with a perfect start, giving George Russell no options to defend his first position. And behind him, George started better from third place, taking advantage of his tire advantage to pass the Englishman. Sainz before then Leclerc (2nd), and what’s worse, things have become more difficult for those Maranello because of the bad start of Russell and the error of hamilton.

Hamilton failed

George got off to a poor start and was overtaken by Lewis who made a mess at the start by skipping the first corner. Hamilton illegally stole his teammate’s place and this caused George to lose time after his teammate, who should have gotten back into position but took longer than necessary to do so. Norris also asked for that radio position, and finally, after asking for it for a long time, Lewis gave it back to him.

When Russell regained third place almost 3 seconds behind him Carlos Sainzwell supported by Leclerc who was less than 1 second behind with a better starting tyre, although he was aware that his tires would wear out sooner and this could leave the Monegasque in heavy traffic when he first stopped.

Alonso, 6th by gaining position

For his part, Fernando Alonso had to start his comeback with a good start and, starting in 7th place, he gained position with Kevin Magnussen for 6th ahead of his former teammate Esteban Ocon (7th ).
