The 2023 Singapore Grand Prix was filled with drama and excitement. With multiple teams having the pace to win, the competition at the top was extremely close. This led to some of the most epic racing action that the fans have gotten to witness in a long time. Surprisingly, it was the first race in a long time where both Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez were starting outside the top 10.
Throughout the weekend, Red Bull were off the pace, and it was evident even during the main race. With Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz on pole position, the Tifosi had lots of hopes for the Spaniard. As the lights went out, Carlos got a good start and went on ahead. Before the halfway mark, a Safety car was triggered as Logan Sargeant’s car came to an abrupt stop after understeering into the wall.
Red Bull didn’t stop for new as they started on Hards. This bumped them up the leaderboard. However, they were not able to retain the places as they had close to no grip and kept sliding on the track. This was a huge disadvantage to them and a great chance for other teams to take advantage. With there being no such prominent overtake for the lead, the racing action was pristine nonetheless.
Fans react to the 2023 Singapore GP calling it the best race of the season
With Red Bull not dominating as usual, the probability of any other team winning increased tenfold. With the fans being used to either Max Verstappen or Sergio Perez winning a race this season, Singapore offered a fresh dose of drama and excitement. The unpredictability of the top 5 finishing orders was crucial to providing an entertaining race for the fans. Here is how they reacted to it.
With Red Bull out of the equation, the racing suddenly seemed to become more exciting for the fans, and it was evident. Having watched Max Verstappen win 10 races in a row prior to the Singapore GP, yesterday’s race offered a fresh set of faces on the podium. Many took to X (Formerly Twitter) to share how happy they were that they wouldn’t have to listen to the Dutch National Anthem. With Red Bull’s disappointing performance at the Marina Bay Circuit, all eyes are on Suzuka where many are hoping for the Milton Keynes based team to repeat this performance.
