Jenson Button - DNF - 5.5/10
As Hamilton and Romain Grosjean showed, Singapore is a real struggle if a driver doesn’t get a clean weekend. Button started 12th after a messy Friday for McLaren and was attacking Valtteri Bottas ahead of him at the start when he had to swerve to avoid Hulkenberg’s spinning Force India, damaging his car against the Williams as a result. The front wing was replaced but further damage to the brake duct and floor cost him time before the car was retired on safety grounds.
