What they had not come up with anything in Spielberg in Styria: The grid girls wore Dirndl, the skies turned Kunstflieger their pirouettes, and the opening act went Formula 1 legends like Niki Lauda, Alain Prost or a few laps in their old cars. For a moment, this Grand Prix of Austria was like a trip to the golden era of the sport, as it was less adjustable wings and energy recovery than to pure racing.
But at least with the launch shattered this illusion: Mercedes drove as so often in the past few months in a league of its own. Since the silver arrows this time no serious strategy error underwent, Nico Rosberg had little trouble to get his third win of the season.
The World Champion Son Unique was successful: He got off to a better start as the defending champion Lewis Hamilton and pushed for the first time on the track past him on rank one. In the current Formula 1, in the tire wear and fuel consumption make every overtaking maneuver for strategic balancing act, which is more than half the battle on the road to victory. So even at the Red Bull Ring: Rosberg, who had made the whole weekend a stronger impression than Hamilton, extended his lead in no time to just seconds and managed him from now surprisingly easy. “The launch has made the difference,” the 29-year-old said, relieved later: “After that it ran smoothly for me.”
At the latest when the Briton after his pit stop the boundary line ran down the side of the track and was occupied for a time penalty of five seconds the race was decided. The distance between two rivals melted on ten points, the title race is likely to finally be a duel between fellow. In Austria they were so superior that Felipe Massa (Williams) came in third place for a half minute behind the Mercedes duo finish.
In this place Sebastian Vettel had hoped. But instead of being able to annoy the silver soloist was, robbed him of his pit crew early any chance of a podium finish. The installation of the right rear wheel took a whopping 13 seconds, four times as long as with all competitors. . After that, Hamilton and Rosberg were finally no longer obtain out of reach and Massa
“Such a mistake is human,” said Vettel after fourth place: “That He then immediately does a position, of course, is particularly bitter. ” Just like two weeks ago in Canada when the qualifying of Hessen was marked by technical problems, gave the Scuderia a place on the podium lightly ago.
Started had the race with the most spectacular accident of the year. Fernando Alonso had a few meters lost control of his McLaren-Honda and had hit the vehicle in front of him Raikkonen. The Finn forked the Spaniards really had and was lucky that Alonso wreck missed his head by a few centimeters. Both had some trouble to climb out of their wedged cars that scare survived but unharmed. For Alonso, it was the fourth consecutive races that he could not finish.
A little later, Jenson Button made his off in lap nine, the worst result in the McLaren-story perfectly. Raikkonen’s balance sheet is as WM-fourth indeed better – for countable even still had more Ferrari-mate Vettel ensure
