Points are distributed on Sunday. In the race. Or, in the case from Azerbaijan, the largest number of them are distributed on Sunday and in the long race. There, Fernando Alonso will start sixthbut despite the fact that he was a second from the pole of charles leclerc and that Hamilton is ahead of him Ya Sainz in Red Bull they point to him as a rival again.
Because they don’t trust They do not trust the two-time champion or an Aston Martin that had problems in qualifying. Because the DRS, the element that is so present in the Silverstone factory failed. He failed on a track where there is a 2-kilometer straight.
So complicated. It is complicated and it was equal in top speed to, for example, Lewis Hamilton. Nor was it the English of the fastest, but even so, he surpassed Fernando and not by little. The normal thing, yes, is that the DRS thing is arranged for both Sunday and Saturday… and that means that Red Bull does not take its eyes off Aston Martin.
“He had his problems…”
“It should have been closer, but it had its problems,” he says Helmut Marko, one of the most authoritative voices of the energy drink brand.
And he continues: “The differences are enormous. Mercedes is nine tenths behind us… so yes. I would say that Alonso is our great rival, together with Ferrari”.
Basically the Italians have been first and fourth. Charles Leclerc, with a practically perfect lap, took pole position for in front of Verstappen and Pérez; Sainz, in one day full of ‘action’ and not exactly positive, He placed his car in the second row.
And for Saturday…
Intense and interesting weekend the one that remains, with a Saturday that he will have an appointment, another, with the classification for a sprint in which you can take risks.
