Ferrari claims 'boredom' was the real winner at Singapore Grand Prix

After blundering on strategy and being beaten by Mercedes and Red Bull at the Singapore Grand Prix, Ferrari has raised eyebrows with a rather bizarre post-race press release.

Lewis Hamilton won from pole position at Marina Bay in a race which saw Vettel and Ferrari attempt an aggressive under-cut, pitting earlier than the Mercedes driver. Rather than gain an advantage, Vettel was released into traffic and ended up falling behind Max Verstappen's Red Bull.

Vettel never got close enough to Verstappen to attempt another overtake, meaning he had to settle for the final step on the podium.
