Monaco Grand prix 2016


Monaco never disappoints. 

Redbull who've been having a really great run recently found themselves ahead of Ferrari and Mercedes ! 
Daniel Ricciardo was in front of both the Mercedes in Qualifying. Redbull had the race in their hands until that fateful pitstop... Redbull who are known for their clean and fast pitstops chose this very race which they happen to lead to mess up (the one race where you'd want them to keep it clean and that happens). To quote Daniel Ricciardo - "I have been screwed for two races in a row "  (Feel sorry for the guy) 

Lewis Hamilton who was sitting put in second all of a sudden led the race ( who got it front of nico rosberg with the help of break issues in nico's car and some team orders) Lewis did an amazing job keeping Daniel behind him and he was on the same tires since the beginning of the race. 
And Max Verstappen ended up in the wall two days in a row. 

Sergio Perez and Force India played a clever strategy and ended up infront of Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel. Vettel tried hard to get pass the Force India but in a track like Monaco overtaking is very hard. Anyhow Ferrari just really have to get themselves together. Maurizio Arrivabene ( Ferrari's Team principal) said " If Redbull is our problem then I might as well go home" . Ferrari are bringing updates to their car in Canada. 

Monaco + Rain = crashes. 
Jolyon Palmer was the first one followed by Kimi Raikkonen , Danil Kvyat , Kevin Magnussen , Max Verstappen , Felipe Nasr and Marcus Ercisson . Oh and Crashtor i mean Pastor Maldonado was watching the race not like he has to anything with the crashes..


 The championship surely got interesting. Gap between Nico and Lewis is down to 24 points. and 46 points between Nico and Sebastian who is currently 5th in the championship. 

*Excitedly screams* It's going to be an interesting championship! (Hopefully)


Until the next race
Goodbye

F1 Friendships/Bromances

In the title i used the word 'Bromance', if you don't know what bromance means well to put it simply it friendship between men . It's not hard to tell that it's the combination of two words 'brother' and 'romance'.  There are bromances in everywhere and F1 is not an exception.They maybe rivals while on track but off track it's a little different.  1.Fernando Alonso/Mark Webber  Mark webber might have retired form Formula one but that doesn't mean that his friendship with fellow driver Mark webber would halt. They share a common love for cycling and are often seen together in the paddock ,F1 or Le Mans.    P.S their "shipped name is webbando"             2.Sebastian Vettel/Kimi Raikkonen   Now teammates these two have been friends ever since Vettel's entry into F1 in 2007. They are often seen sharing jokes let it be on the podium or in the paddock , they spend most the driver's parad...
