Jolyon Palmer saw something in Lewis Hamilton Sepang onboard that suggests he could win in SingaporeJolyon Palmer has expressed confidence in Lewis Hamilton's chances for victory in the upcoming Singapore Grand Prix, following Hamilton's impressive podium finish in Sepang. Palmer noted that Hamilton's performance in Malaysia indicates he is back in contention for race wins, particularly with the strengths of the Ferrari team aligning well with the characteristics of the Singapore circuit. Hamilton, a four-time winner in Singapore, will be looking to add to his tally after a successful stint with Ferrari. Palmer highlighted Hamilton's historical success at both Singapore and Austin, suggesting that the medium-speed corners of the Singapore track could favour Ferrari's strong aerodynamic capabilities. With seven races remaining in the season, Hamilton aims to leverage his experience and the car's performance to secure another victory.f1oversteer.comMon 5 OctDavid Coulthard hints at imminent F1 African GP announcementDavid Coulthard has indicated that Formula 1 may soon announce its return to Africa, a long-awaited development for the sport. During a podcast, he expressed optimism about the addition of an African race to the calendar, while also discussing the challenges of fitting it into the existing schedule alongside races in Portugal and Turkey. F1 CEO Stefano Domenicali previously mentioned that negotiations for a grand prix in Africa are advancing positively. Lewis Hamilton has been a vocal supporter of bringing F1 back to the continent, emphasizing the importance of having a race in Africa and his personal connection to the region.Motorsport.comMon 5 Oct1 commentFred Vasseur’s explanation for Lewis Hamilton’s strategy blunder in Malaysia is truly bafflingLewis Hamilton showcased impressive skill to secure a third-place finish in Malaysia, despite Ferrari's questionable strategy choices. After qualifying second, Hamilton faced a challenging start when his car stalled due to a software issue. The race was delayed for nearly two hours, and when it began, Ferrari's decision to start Hamilton on slick tyres proved detrimental, as many cars on intermediates surged ahead. Fred Vasseur, Ferrari's team principal, defended the decision by stating that the team lacked sufficient information to make a better choice. However, this claim has been met with skepticism, as Hamilton had communicated the track's slippery conditions, and other drivers had successfully pitted for intermediates before the race resumed. Ultimately, while Ferrari secured a respectable third and fourth place, Hamilton's performance indicated that a different strategy could have led to a victory.f1oversteer.comMon 5 OctF1 faces embarrassment over Verstappen predictionThe Formula 1 community expressed embarrassment following a bold prediction made about Max Verstappen.

Despite Hamilton securing a podium finish, he acknowledged a significant power deficit compared to Max Verstappen's Red Bull, particularly on straights where Ferrari is losing three to four tenths of a second. Hamilton praised Ferrari's chassis but lamented their ongoing power issues, which he believes will persist throughout the season. The team has introduced upgrades but does not expect to make a significant improvement until 2027. Hamilton's performance was highlighted by a late overtaking move on Isack Hadjar, showcasing his skill despite the car's limitations.f1oversteer.comMon 5 Oct
