Meanwhile, due to Zhou Guanyu's car stopping on the track, although Zhou Guanyu deliberately parked his car at the exit of Matthew's way, the location was precisely on the racing line into Turn 5, directly facing it.
Bianqi's accident was right in front, and there was rain on the track, so the race committee didn't consider much and directly deployed the safety car.
Singapore once again continued its record of deploying a safety car in every race since its inception.
After this safety car period, the time gap between Qin Miao and Leclerc shrank from 2 seconds to 1 second.
Although the reduction wasn't substantial, it was still good news, as the gap between them was wiped out again.
The safety car lasted from lap 8 to lap 11, and the race then restarted.
Qin Miao didn't manage to gain anything from Leclerc at the start; despite Leclerc's bad luck, his defensive skills were undoubtedly exceptional.
