Leclerc ended qualifying early to save tires for the race

Charles Leclerc was very close to the best starting position in Bahrain, but the Ferrari driver tactically opted not to make another attempt, saving a set of tires for the race. As a result, the Monaco native slipped from second place to third when he was overtaken by the other Red Bull driver, Sergio Perez, and although it seemed that there was some kind of failure of the car, Ferrari announced that it was a tactical move. "We have to be realistic," Leclerc said after qualifying, Red Bull and Aston Martin are obviously going to be very fast in the race, so I think we did the right thing when we were prepared to lose one or two starting places but start the race on new tyres. I'm sure we made the right decision, but if that's true, we'll see tomorrow." The Monaco native said that the team from Mar

Sebastian Vettel positive on covid-19, Nico Hulkenberg will race instead

formula 1

German Sebastian Vettel will have to miss the inaugural Formula 1 race in Bahrain as he tested positive for covid-19. Instead of the four-time world champion, German Nico Hulkenberg will race in the Aston Martin team. https://twitter.com/F1/status/1504390911442272269 A similar fate befell Australian Daniel Ricciard a few days ago during tests in Bahrain, who had to leave his car to a teammate at McLarn on the last day of testing after he tested positive for covid -19. But Ricciardo then passed two consecutive negative tests and will be able to compete in the race in Bahrain. The fact that two racers tested positive in the paddock in a week raises the question of the effectiveness of the measures that are still in force, but of course some fears arise among other races.

Romain GROSJEAN: I saw DEATH in the FACE

GP Bahrain

The French racer collided with a safety fence in the first lap of the race, causing the car to break in half and be engulfed in flames. Despite the severe collision (the deceleration was as much as 53 g), Grosjean kept his composure and climbed out of the burning car on his own, suffering some minor burns and abrasions. Grosjean will have to miss Sakhir's GP due to burns (he will be replaced by Pietro Fittipaldi), but he hopes to be able to return to the season finale in Abu Dhabi. In the first long interview after the accident, the Frenchman joked that he had hands like Miki Miška, as they were bandaged due to burns. Regarding how he experienced the accident, the Geneva racer said: "When they explain to me today that I was on fire for 28 seconds, I have to admit that at that time everything seemed much longer
