“I need to win, and Checo needs to finish fourth or lower and Charles eighth or lower,” he said on Thursday.“It's quite a long shot. And I just want to enjoy the weekend. And of course, try to win it.”
As F1 returns to eastern Asia for the first time since the coronavirus pandemic, a triumph on Honda’s home ground would mean a lot more. “And also, I think [it will be] my first proper opportunity to win the title. So yeah, of course, I'm looking forward to Singapore right now. But I'm also very excited for next weekend.”
However a combination of poor reliability, strategy errors and driving mistakes derailed his and Ferrari's campaign and opened the door for Verstappen to pull well clear in the standings.
Too much of an ask, and many things not in his control even if he wins the race. Have a strong feeling that Max may not even win the race as the track suits Ferrari more than Red Bull.
Hope he wins it it Suzuka
Would be quite a party though
