Haha DC just dumping a bunch of water on Norris in the post race interview.
Probably one of the most uneventful Singapore GP's in recent times. The cars in the front built up such a huge gap.
Great drive by Piastri getting to the podium. Leclerc had a good drive as well.
With the way F1TV kept bringing it up in their commentary, it does appear that this was Ricciardo's last race.
Did you see his post race interview? He was fighting back tears and so was the F1TV crew when they cut back to them. It seems the writing is on the wall.
Bittersweet moment as someone younger definitely deserves a chance to show what they can do, but mid season oustings never feel good and Daniel is a fan favorite.
Whatever happens I hope he has made peace with his time in F1. He's made a lot of money and memories.
This is the interview of Ricciardo, so sad: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jx5AdhnxAuk
This was sad. I know it's time. But boy howdy I've loved everything about Danny as a person. He's held his head so high during what has to be an incredibly mentally tough journey.
This was actually pretty brutal to watch. The man is doing everything he can to keep his composure, say the right things, and still be the positive force he always is.
But this is the end. He knows it, we know it. And he has to look at a camera and keep smiling for us.
Tough stuff and I will always respect and love Danny. Legitimately my favorite personality in the sport, and I truly hope he bounces back personally, and can somehow continue to contribute to F1 somehow. I imagine he could be a great tv personality one day.
It's just sad. Lovable dude. End of an era.
It was heartbreaking to watch live. Thank you for posting the link for anyone who missed it.
