Vettel had brand spanking new tires which enabled him to go that fast. The undercut was massive in Singapore. He wasn’t quicker than LeClerc after LeClerc pitted only one lap later either. There was zero special about what he did and any attempts to explain it as only something Vettel could do is stretching... desperately. He took his opportunity but there was nothing special about it.
I would still give Vettel some credit for not making any mistakes three times in a row during the race restarts.

Lappi is one of my favourite drivers and yet I feel Paddon could’ve been a better choice, and if Hyundai were actually serious about this year, they would field 4 cars in their line-up for each...
