Tales from the paddock: Back under the floodlights of Singapore
Next weekend, the Marina Bay Street Circuit in #singapore plays host to F1 for the first time since 2019. The 13th #singapore Grand Prix will once again be staged as a floodlit event. The team has won the night race four times so far, three times courtesy of Lewis Hamilton (2014, 2017, 2018) and once with Nico Rosberg at the wheel (2016). The most recent winner in #singapore was #sebastianvettel while he was still #racing for Ferrari.
Now with Aston Martin, he is due to retire from the series at the end of the season; his tally of five victories on this street circuit makes him the most successful driver in the #singapore GP. There are only three other drivers who have lifted the winner’s trophy here so far: Lewis (four times), Fernando Alonso (twice) and Nico (once). #sebastianvettel and Lewis are joint best qualifiers with four pole positions each. Ferrari have more wins than any other team (five) ahead of Mercedes-AMG on three and McLaren and Red Bull on two each. Mercedes-powered cars have won five races - the same number as cars with Ferrari engines. The lap record is 1:36.015 minutes, set by Lewis in 2018.
The fastest race lap so far - 1:41.905 minutes - was clocked by Kevin Magnussen in a Haas, also in the 2018 season.
Raffaele Marciello underscores GT Masters title ambitions with two podium finishes: The tradition-steeped Sachsenring was the venue for the penultimate race weekend of the 2022 ADAC GT Masters. Championship aspirant Raffaele Marciello (SUI) in the #48 Mercedes-AMG GT3 of MANN-FILTER Team LANDGRAF immediately stamped his authority on the proceeding, booking pole position for Saturday’s race. Fabian Schiller (GER) partnered by Jules Gounon (FRA), who also went into the weekend as a title contender, qualified in second position.
An uncharacteristic error by Marciello at the start opened a gap for Schiller, which the Drago #racing Team ZVO driver gratefully exploited. Schiller and Gounon went on to win the race ahead of Marciello and Dani Juncadella (ESP) who had to settle for the runner-up spot.
