The author has written that he believes LEC, with a winning car, could go as fast as VER. He added that he would not put LEC in the background because, in his opinion, he gives his all and is capable of winning, while he would not be convinced to see VER in a Ferrari more competitive than LEC's.

Lucas Corsino said that Franco's bad streak was especially difficult for a driver and that the team had to work with the engineers to resolve the issues. He explained that the Reliability Engineering area was responsible for preventing failures, evaluating designs, studying deterioration, and analyzing its causes. He also noted that Franco had shown good pace that day, defending himself from Hadjar, whom he identified as a Red Bull driver, and being faster than Sainz. Corsino added that the races in Texas, Mexico, and Brazil were approaching, circuits where, he said, Franco performed well. #Fórmula1 #Pilotos #Deportes (translated)

Federico Albano wrote that at the Singapore GP, a new phase of dominance for Max Verstappen and Red Bull had begun. According to him, the RB22 had become more predictable after stabilizing its aerodynamics, and Verstappen had continued to perform at his best. Albano attributed the competitiveness of the car also to the low-end power of the RB-Ford PU, low drag, and the Dutch driver's tire management. Albano considered Ferrari's weekend positive, stating that they were only second to Verstappen. He wrote that Charles Leclerc had almost overtaken the Dutchman at the start, but the Ferrari had bounced after going off the curb at the pit lane exit, causing him to lose the necessary margin for a more decisive attack. According to Albano, the rear-limited characteristics of the circuit highlighted the weakness of the SF26's rear, explaining both the extreme setup chosen for Leclerc in the Sprint and the difficulties in preserving the tires during the race. He added that the updates expected for Austin would indicate the direction Ferrari was taking. Regarding Lewis Hamilton, Albano wrote that the driver could have achieved third place with a double pit stop, but chose to stay on track, perhaps to attempt to overtake Leclerc. He praised his apologies and described the potential double podium for Ferrari as a missed opportunity, which would have brought points in the Constructors' Championship; he also noted that Hamilton had finished sixth after a weekend where, in his opinion, he had been in great form. Albano also congratulated Kimi Antonelli for the podium and criticized Lando Norris's lack of responsiveness. However, he argued that Mercedes still had a weak front end and that, despite the characteristics of the circuit and the updated PU, they had only achieved the result of the third force. He concluded by indicating Austin as an important appointment for Mercedes and Ferrari, while Verstappen, according to him, would continue to aim for dominance in the final phase of the season. #Formula1 #SingaporeGP #Verstappen (translated)

Luca Ruocco wrote that Hamilton's choice was not about the points or the third place lost, for which the driver had apologized, but the fact that, according to him, the Ferrari strategists were being insulted as usual.

Bari24 reported that it had been confirmed that the driver had chosen to stay on track. According to the author, he had lost points because he wanted to maintain his position on track ahead of his teammate and had not stepped aside when Charles arrived. Bari24 contrasted the choice with discussions about teamwork and harmony within the team that, according to him, the driver had been talking about up until a month prior. #Formula1 #Motorsport #Strategia (translated)

Víctor Abad pointed out that the FOM cut the image when Antonelli recounted what happened with the brake pedal before the podium. He also stated that the FIA did not take into account a track limits infringement nor imposed a sanction, and added that the replay of the shock was also not broadcast. #F1 #Formula1 #Deportes (translated)

Lewis⁴⁴ Argento described what happened that day as shameful and stated that the team had shown a clear favorite, which was meaningless. He claimed they had harmed one driver's strategy to secure a second place instead of fighting for the victory and said that, due to decisions like that, the team would always be a failure. https://t.co/rZbpzJReVB #Fórmula1 #Deportes #Polémica (translated)
