Two years ago on this date, Lewis Hamilton claimed the 2014 Singapore Grand Prix and turned a 22-point deficit to Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg into a three-point advantage after the German encountered mechanical problems on the formation lap and ultimately retired.

Hamilton never relinquished the championship lead and went on to secure his second world title in Abu Dhabi. We bet Rosberg would not mind flipping the script this year after re-claiming the points lead from his archrival at Marina Bay Circuit last weekend.
