On Cataluña
Circuit was a great sunny weather, perfect to start next exciting race. On
Saturday qualification Lewis Hamilton won there pole position, second fastest
time had Nico Rosberg, so there was a huge question; WHO IS GOING TO TAKE THE
LEAD AND WIN RACE??:D, one of Mercedes drivers ( there was a huge possibility )
or maybe somebody else Red Bull or Ferrari drivers....., however I could not
imagine what happened a few corners ahead......Five lights out and the race had
started. Lewis Hamilton started perfect, took the lead, but Nico was very
close, chasing him trying to overtake...., at the same time Daniel Ricciardo
was third in front of Max Verstappen, suddenly Sebastian Vettel overtook Max ,
but then eighteen years old Red Bull driver took position back, again at the
same time Nico overtook Lewis taking the lead, but Lewis did not want to be
second, he wanted to win and that was unbelievable, he tried to overtake Nico
having no place on circuit to do it, so he drive on grass with a lot of speed, and
I know that Lewis is a very talented driver, but with all respect he is not a
superhero who can overtake another driver driving on the grass..... His car
spined out, hit Nico’s car, both cars was out of the circuit, for Mercedes drivers the race was over....Safety
car appeared on circuit and the leader became Daniel Ricciardo.
Actually very similar situations took place in the past for
example in 2010, where on Turkey Grand Prix Mark Webber hit Sebastin Vettel and
that caused finished race for Sebastian, but for Mark, his car had lots of
debris, but he continued race....( Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber was in the
same team Red Bull and they were fighting for championship)
Second situation was lots of time ego in 1990 between Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna, they just was too close each other and had a serious contact, that situation caused them both out of the race.
Thank you so much for reading this post and see you of the next parts of Spanish Grand Prix...:):):)
