    This race will go down as one of the greatest races in F1 history. Whether you are a fan or not of Checo, the circumstances were almost of a fairy tale. Him getting dropped from the team and not knowing if he would have a seat the following year, having always been in a midfield car and never won a race and to top it all off dropping to last place in the race and finishing first was nothing short of amazing. So glad RB signed him. the battles between him and Hamilton in 2021 were nothing short of legendary. Fast forward, October 2022 and having just won Singapore GP, Checo is having the best moment of his career. Vamos Checo!!!

    Potentially my favorite story in all the 15 years I've been following F1. Especially if you add in the fact that his car broke down from P3 before that and he got his 4 year contract at his team from the past ~7 seasons breached to make room for someone else, right as they were going to rebrand and he was without a seat at this point in time.
    This mans career has been extraordinary. From the hyped youngster, to the overeager hotshot at McLaren, to being the king of the midfield at the team he built up and saved from bankruptcy, to being kicked for Vettel (who in the form of the past 3 years is imo a downgrade to checo), to saving his career with this drive (and others where he gapped the midfield by 20s and finished 4th) and now being able to add a final chapter at a top team

    The thing about this race is that is so poetic in that it mirrors Checo’s career itself. He started with big promises and big podiums in 2012, went to a big team but after that he fell hard from the top and has ever since 2014 slowly climbing back step by step to a big team where he can do great stuff. The comeback king!

      I think this is much better story than Gasly's win. Perez was demoted from McLaren got in the midfield team. Saved Force India/Racing Point from going bankrupt, saved all those engineers, mechanics, factory workers and everyone from getting fired and then Strolls turned away from him to get Vettel. It was his (at the time) penultimate race in F1. Without seat for 2021 he really shone in the closing rounds of the season. Finally he got his first ever victory after 190 race starts and he absolutely deserved it. And it got him his second chance in a big team and he really nailed it. Beautiful story.
      Checo is a legend.
