The only night race of the Grand Prix season took place in Singapore this weekend. Red Bull managed to get back on the front line but Sebastian Vettel could only manage 2nd. Mark Webber had to settle for 5th on the grid. Fernando Alonso took Pole and Lewis Hamilton was 3rd. First drama was in the 3rd lap when the Force India-Mercedes of Vitantonio Liuzzi crashed into a wall on turn 10. Out came the safety car. Lap 4 saw Red Bull take a gamble with Mark Webber's tyres and change them from soft to hard. By lap 7 Webber managed to get into 9th position but he had a lot of ground to cover if he was to get on the podium.| Driver | Team | Time |
