Through an incredible tactical blunder by Mercedes at world champion Lewis Hamilton stall rival Nico Rosberg has the hat-trick at the Formula 1 classic in Monte Carlo before compatriot Sebastian Vettel managed. Hamilton led sovereign Sunday’s race, until a safety car phase after a violent departure of teenage Max Verstappen at the top caused a dramatic turn in the closing stages: Mercedes took the British to the pits, Rosberg and Vettel remained on the Route.
As the years 2013 and 2014 ultimately won election Monegasque Rosberg. Vettel finished second, Hamilton third. The next Silver Arrow Zoff is programmed. “Absolute wrong decision,” said team chairman of the board Niki Lauda.
With his second win of the season in Serie shortened Rosberg (116) the gap to Hamilton (126) to seven points in the world championship standings. And the Briton was pissed, “What’s going on?” He asked after a tire change, Hamilton the certain victory, the first since 2008 in the Principality, cost. After the emotions were high cooked in highly explosive duel team a year ago, is expected to employ the Silver Arrows even longer this wondrous scenario. Vettel shortened the gap to Hamilton to 28 points.
Hamilton gambled sovereign leadership
This victory was the Briton who enjoyed noticeably the glamorous surroundings of the rich and famous, “more than ever”. After his splendid performance in qualifying he let the race start it arise also no doubt. For the first time, the Briton took the legendary race in the narrow streets of the principality from pole in attack. Rosberg initially only chance to overtake the rivals, was at the start, but it was not working. Hamilton appeared for the two Germans very long reach.
Sovereign bog Hamilton after the brief acceleration straight into the first corner. Behind Vettel Rosberg tried to attack the 27-year old from Heppenheim came with his Ferrari but on the curbs and drifted into the right-hand bend. Hamilton First, Second Rosberg, Vettel third parties – so we went in and after the first round on, initially each with about two seconds between them
Rosberg. ways to beat the championship leader as recently in Barcelona, dwindled with each of the 78 laps on the 3.34 km long course.
It wanted Rosberg to second place in the race the pressure hold up in qualifying. In fact, Vettel him increasingly closer. Chances of winning the first Ferrari victory in 14 years in the Principality by Michael Schumacher had the Hesse not, second place appeared but already there possible, especially since it already for about a quarter of the race distance to the lapping on the shortest course in Grand Prix calendar came.
A crash is the race upside down
On lap 21 but it was clear that all services of the two Mercedes until then corresponded exactly what the team wanted. Hamilton, who complained a few times despite a still restrained driving style through to warm brakes could give more gas. Rosberg should continue to close the gap to his teammate. Also because of Mercedes-view was a danger that Vettel earlier comes to single tire change to the pits, overtaking the choice-Monegasques thus could.
And indeed Vettel came before Rosberg into the pits, but only one round. It was not enough for the Ferrari drivers to get back on the course in front of Rosberg. “We did not make it,” Vettel concluded via team radio. Hamilton seemed confident and unchallenged to drive to victory. But Verstappens violent departure turned everything upside down.
Hamilton came to change tires not to pit, Rosberg and Hamilton. And suddenly – when the safety car was out – was Hamilton behind Rosberg and Vettel. Was for Rosberg it was the tenth win of his career, but one with great flavor.
