Are Ferrari going to mind that their driver under huge of pressure and needs a bit of a boost wins the grand prix? I think they're going to be pretty happy.
I think they will all be chuffed that Sebastian Vettel wins the grand prix.
"Bravo Charles, from Mattia *speaks in Italian...*"
My Italian needs work, sorry.
Christian Horner: "Well done Max you drove really hard for that one, and well done for beating Mercedes today."
Max Verstappen: "It was tricky but we cleared the traffic and it's good to be on the podium."
"Yes, P1. One and two for Ferrari, awesome job."
Vettel takes Singapore GP win #bbcf1
Simon Baker: Nothing against Vettel, but I think that fate has played a bigger part in how his race has gone, rather than speed from what I've seen. It may lift his confidence, but (shrugs)
Jeremiah Kariuki: Finally, Vettel takes a wine. 392 days after his last win. He was flawless today. A deserved win.
For the first time since Spa in August 2018, Sebastian Vettel wins a grand prix.
Second is Charles Leclerc, presumably still fuming at losing his lead when undercut by his own team, Max Verstappen is third, Lewis Hamilton fourth, Valtteri Bottas fifth.
Alexander Albon takes sixth, Lando Norris seventh, Pierre Gasly eighth, Nico Hulkenberg ninth and Antonio Giovinazzi, who led for four laps, gets a fourth point of the season.
1 Vettel, 2 Leclerc, 3 Verstappen, 4 Hamilton, 5 Bottas, 6 Albon, 7 Norris, 8 Gasly, 9 Hulkenberg, 10 Giovinazzi, 11 Grosjean, 12 Sainz, 13 Stroll, 14 Ricciardo, 15 Kvyat, 16 Kubica, 17 Magnussen.
DNF - Raikkonen, Perez, Russell.

There's two sides to it in a way Ferrari took the initiative by pitting Vettel but they left themselves really exposed to Mercedes. If Mercedes pitted Hamilton, then Hamilton wins the grand prix.
It's more a missed chance from Mercedes than anything great from Ferrari in some ways.
Vettel's lead is 1.8 seconds. This looks done.

Joe Precious: Lots of good overtaking today. Just a shame that, as usual, none of it involved the leading cars...
Lap 60/61
Lewis Hamilton has Max Verstappen on his radar, that would be third. This looks like Vettel's win, with a huge assist to his strategists and much to the disgust of his team-mate.
Lap 59/61
Two more after our current lap.
Lap 59/61
Not for long, Valtteri Bottas now takes it. Bonus point incoming, that means Hamilton's title lead advantage is only going to be improving by one point.
Lap 58/61
Daniil Kvyat is the fastest lap man now, but he's not in the top 10.
Lap 58/61
I think we can stop the run of amazing races in a row at six. Unless we've got some unforeseen craziness in the last three laps of this one.
Lap 58/61
Good news, Antonio Giovinazzi is in the points. He deserves something for the way he brilliantly led for four laps.
Lady T: it's boring again, we all know Leclerc has been told to stay behind. Not sure what's going on with Mercedes either
F1know: Just popping to the A50 to watch some overtaking.
Five laps to go.
Lap 56/61

For the top six has been a not very interesting grand prix, behind it it has been great. They can't get closer, and you need to be close here to overtake.
Lap 56/61
Sebastian Vettel is now in possession of the fastest lap bonus point. After missing out on any points in Italy, he's on course for a maximum of 26 today.
