“So, I don't know, very strange, I had no rear grip the last lap. It was extremely poor, it was the worst balance I've had in the weekend.”

Colapinto described having no rear grip and the worst balance of his weekend on his final lap in Q2.

“So, I don't know, a bit lost, to be honest, because Q1 felt quite easy to do the lap and it was coming not too bad, but then it was very, very poor.”

Colapinto said he felt lost after his Q1 pace did not carry over into Q2 at Marina Bay.

“Before the wall, I was already a lot slower than my Q1 lap, which normally you would improve a lot.”
