Nico Rosberg's unfortunate turn of events in the form of a faulty gearbox problems that sent him stranded at the start of the formation lap gave Lewis Hamilton from Mercedes the upper hand in the Singapore GP race at Marina Bay. With no Rosberg in sight, Hamilton's now focused on catching up against the likes of two Red Bull Racing's finest; Sebastian Vettel and Daniel Ricciardo. His victory sent Vettel in 2nd place and Ricciardo in 3rd place.
Other racers that faced the same fate as Rosberg in this race were McLaren's Jenson Button for his car's power box problems, two racers from Sauber, and Kamui Kobayashi from Caterham for his car's power unit failure.
On the driver's ranking aside, looks like Hamilton's now in the lead and he's three points ahead of his teammate Nico Rosberg. This is going to be very one sided.
The next race will be at Japan this 5th of October.
