'Worst weekend ever' for Grosjean

Renault's second car failed to finish the Singapore Grand Prix again this year. Romain Grosjean did however manage to keep his car out of the wall at the newly dubbed 'Piquet corner', Turn 17, unlike on Friday.

Brake temperatures are reported to have forced the Frenchman to retire on Lap 3 of the race and the young Frenchman was not shy in explaining his personal disappointment with the weekend. "This is the worst weekend I've ever had," he told reporters.

The team, now managed by Northern Irishman Bob Bell, have struggled with brake temperatures all weekend and do not appear to have mastered the problem, according to Grosjean. "I lost the brakes and the team just can't understand it," he added.
