Formula One's 2014 Singapore Grand Prix was what could be described as a "slow burner."

Nico Rosberg's pre-race electrical difficulties and subsequent retirement proved the most interesting part of a dour opening hour. Gaps were comfortable, tyres were healthy and overtaking was kept to a minimum.

But then Adrian Sutil had a moment of inattention going into Turn 8, and everything changed. The Sauber man drifted across the track, apparently unaware Sergio Perez was trying to go around the outside, and the Mexican had nowhere to go.

His front wing was heavily damaged and bent out of shape. One corner later it failed in spectacular fashion, spraying shards of carbon fibre across the circuit.

The safety car emerged, strategies were compromised and suddenly there was a bit of uncertainty over who might claim the win.

In the end it went to Lewis Hamilton, with Sebastian Vettel second, Daniel Ricciardo third and Fernando Alonso fourth.

 

Note on Power Rankings

These rankings should not be confused with the actual championship table.

Rather than looking solely at points, they also take into account race results, qualifying, overall performance of each driver and how they stack up against their team-mates. The relative pace of each driver's car is factored in.

Only performance at the last six races is considered.

The previous rankings, based on the six races up to and including the Italian Grand Prix, are here. All position changes are relative to positions in that article.
