The Singapore qualifying session was a mixed bag for the Mercedes paddock, with Russell crashing out in Q2. However, Hamilton arguably made up for Russell’s result with some incredible laps. The man who has the second most wins at the Marina Bay Street Circuit after Sebastian Vettel might just level with the German by getting one victory tomorrow.
Showcasing how far they’ve come, the Mercedes man was on provisional pole on multiple occasions during the last qualifying session.

However, credit where credit is due and a lot of it goes to Hamilton’s ability behind the wheel to.
