Mark Webber will start the Singapore GP with a new engine after the Red Bull team elected to change it following Friday practice.
The Australian set the quickest time in first practice but fell to second in the final session of the day, pipped to P1 by his team-mate by just over half a second.
The engine change won’t cost Webber any grid positions as he remains within the regulatory eight engines. This will be his seventh.
The change will however bring his engine usage inline with three of his title challengers; Lewis Hamilton (7), Jenson Button (7) and Sebastian Vettel (7).
Whilst Fernando Alonso is on his eighth and final new engine for the season.
