Alonso: We were faster than Mercedes

Disappointed Fernando Alosno believes that his team was even faster than Mercedes this racing weekend, although the final result does not confirm this. The Spaniard may have even been fighting for the best starting position on Saturday, but due to hydraulic problems he finished the qualifications early and started the race only in tenth place. Because of this, the team decided on a slightly different strategy. The Spaniard, unlike most, started the race on the hardest version of the tires. However, due to the safety car that drove onto the track earlier than Alpino would have liked, it did not pay off. After the stop, Alonso slipped out of the cities bringing points. The medium-hard tires on his race car did not work as he would have liked. He thus finished the race in the last seventeenth place, far from me

Hamilton in great shape in Austin

formula 1

Lewis Hamilton has scored four consecutive wins twice this season. At the end of May, in August, his fifth consecutive victory was prevented by team rival Nico Rosberg. That was in Monaco. This time, however, the Briton is determined not to do it again. Three races before the end, he has a 17-point advantage over Rosberg. Thanks to the rule with which the majority does not agree that double points will be shared in the last race of the season in Abu Dhabi, there are still 100 points available and the championship is far from decided. However, with a new victory, he would provide an even bigger advantage in the championship. A possible victory in the USA would be his fifth in a row. After winning the Mercedes construction title, it seems that one of the racers of this team will also win the title in the individual competition. Hamilton is ahead of this racing weekend

Lewis: Mercedes will be in better shape in Spain

formula 1

Lewis Hamilton is confident that Mercedes will have a much better chance of winning now that they have found the reasons for the lack of speed in the first races of this season. Hamilton and his teammate Nico Rosberg started the last two races from the best starting position, but they did not show as good form in the race as in the qualifiers. One of the reasons is said to be excessive tire wear, and Hamilton is convinced that the Circuit de Catalunya track is better suited to his f1 w04 race car, which was very fast here in the winter tests. "I recommend it will be different this time. The track in Bahrain depends on the wear of the rear tires, which at least in my case was not so very bad especially in the second part of the race. I am very impatient as we learned something in Sahir

Mixed feelings in a Mercedes camp

formula 1

Nico Rosberg started the race for the Bahrain Grand Prix from the best starting position, but after a four-stop tactic he fell to ninth by the end of the race. "It's a tough day for me. As nice as it was to start the race from first place, it was hard to finish it in ninth. I didn't feel comfortable in the car. I didn't have much fun during the race. Towards the end of the race we decided on an extra, fourth stop, but even that wasn't enough. Towards the end of the race we were wearing too much rear tires. It was hard to drive fast and I couldn't push enough. We have a lot of work ahead of us. we will be able to make progress before the start of the European part of the season. " Lewis Hamilton was much happier with his race. The Briton is finishing the race
