The Briton returns to the scene of his brilliant victory 12 months ago , 75 points adrift of championship leader Fernando Alonso, and well aware that only a victory will keep alive his slim title hopes. But he has already been given some bad news, with post-race investigations of his gearbox after the Singapore GP uncovering an identical gearbox problem to that which had put Lewis Hamilton out of the race .
