It seems the year of Nico Rosberg. After the victory in the Australian Grand Prix the German Mercedes has done its also the Bahrain GP: great start, Control and Nico came the fifth win in a row, also considering the last 3 of 2015. Unfortunately for the companion team Lewis Hamilton, on pole yesterday and today only finished third, also because of Valtteri Bottas in the first corner that has spurred him to lose valuable time. And unfortunately nothing to do also for Ferrari, who dreamed of something more still good second place for Kimi Raikkonen.
Nico Rosberg ruler of Bahrain GP. Ap
vettel, what a shock! – was in some ways a race shocks in fact, for the Cavallino. In the formation lap a giant cloud of smoke has risen from the rear of Sebastian Vettel of SF16-H.
The German was thus forced to a resounding withdrawal without having even started the race, 20 years to the smoke of red Michael Schumacher in a matter of training in the French GP in 1996. After the problem that stopped Raikkonen in Melbourne, here is another technical problem, this time on the power unit of the German. It is certainly a worrying sign. But also revealing: to hook the Mercedes in Maranello are pushing hard with development, even if it means taking risks. It is clear that this stop, in key rainbow, though it did not take.
consolation kimi – The Cavallino, as mentioned, is partially consoled with Raikkonen, finished second after a great comeback race because at the start the Finnish, compared to Australia, it did not fire well. Kimi though reassembled surpassing Ricciardo and Bottas on lap in seventh. His compatriot Williams was then also took a drive through penalty because of clumsy maneuvers against Hamilton at the first corner. The world champion found himself in eighth place and had to commit not just to go up: thanks to its W07 at the end the podium was not a problem. If anything should inquire with their own technicians how come in two races on two managed to throw away the advantage of the pole with two bad starts (or, at least, not at the level of the teammate). Raikkonen has been very well inserted between the two Mercedes, which although strong, now have not walked.
nico perfect – Who has instead done to perfection his work was Rosberg, more and more year of the turning point. Nico, the sixteenth victory of his career, made a good start and thanks to Lewis and problems of the two Ferrari was able to develop a race to the command without the slightest obstacle. Two wins out of two are a dream start and a strong message to the championship. Nico only one hitch at the second pit stop, when he put a little ‘more time and Raikkonen was able to approach. But with the last stop in the final and Nico has controlled the 1st place.
magic haas – Quote of honor for Haas that after the amazing sixth place in Melbourne with Romain Grosjean has hit a spectacular today fifth place, always with the Frenchman. For Ferrarina is a worldwide debut unexpected and wonderful. Also good evidence of Red Bull, who placed the substantial usually Ricciardo fourth, making it clear why Mercedes and Ferrari have not wanted to supply engines to Chris Horner. Sixth for Toro Rosso with Max Verstappen. A debut world championship points in McLaren Belgian Stoffel Vandoorne, really good at this weekend just thrown into the fray by forfeit Fernando Alonso, locked by doctors. Next race in China on April 17.
