Tyre strategy helps Di Resta to season’s best as Vettel completes ninth win
Clever tyre strategy allowed Force India’s Paul di Resta to claim a season’s best sixth at the Singapore night race, where Red Bull’s Sebastian Vettel claimed his ninth victory of the year. Only Jenson Button’s second place finish for McLaren prevented the title fight from ending. Pirelli described the race as one of the toughest of the season, taking the longest time to complete and requiring the heaviest fuel load.
