ROTHNZ GETS ANOTHER COMFORTABLE WIN UNDER SOAKING RAIN IN MONZA!

Rothnz secured his second consecutive win in full wet conditions ahead of his countryman Gordini. Altan limited damage by reaching the last step of podium once more…


Race began with Rothnz on pole and the only victim of first few corners was Cmrcnn, whose retirement brought a VSC. Soon after VSC left and the grid was much more settled and safe, we saw Rothnz’s teammate Rollie retire after losing control as a result of Mrmccann’s contact and Leegoat hitting him, ending in a second retirement which didn’t bring in the SC surprisingly. The race continued with 3 more SCs entering after this, but Rothnz never seemed to be giving away P1. He just entered pits after during SC just to came out P5, but benefited from the contact between Mrmccann and Tbran, climbed P2 and then hunted Atwinke who was leading by then relatively easy, to increase the lead up to 15 secs until the end of the race one more, despite safety cars.

He said after the race: “It feels great. I started of with a good qualy grabbing another pole. Extra important this time due to heavy rain under the race. Unfortunately i get out late in qualy because i wanted to help drag my teammate Rollie but the AI took control of my car and ended up blocking him, im really sorry for that…

I got a really good launch in the wet start and was far ahead into T1, but unfortunately i locked breakes and cut T2 and that brought me a 5sec penalty but got rid of that under a pitstop later on.

I think i had great control of the race and im happy to have a Swede with me on the podium, Gordini in the Haas 🙏.

I was really sad to see Rollie retire the race after a heavy crash that could have ended with serious injurys on Rollie but i’m happy he could get out of his car by himself without any wound.

Unfortunately our big rival Altan did a good race starting from the back of the grid. I kept my eyes on him on the leaderboard, but Gordini did a good job and separated us and made Altan and Alpine score less points…

Its like Alonso (Altan) use to say, its good for me and Lewis(rothNz) if it rains so we can show our skills…😅

I think Altan did a good job thanks to Heidi didnt show up in the stands this time cus she doesnt like rain and she doesnt want her beautiful hair to get wet.. 😬

Thanks for the race. Well done everyone who survived the 53 slippery laps.

Im really sorry for Sir_Ibbo who stayed alive for so long but unfortunately ended in the wall later on.

Gg!”

Gordini on second place was no big surprise, giving his talent and experience… But doing it in Haas is always something special. Altan reaching podium despite quali ban is also an impressive showing. We saw him acting much calmer and patient today, possibly thanks to the penalty points he received as a result of his teammate’s appeals, but it worked well for him anyway.

Dan benefited from the time penalties of Atwinke and Endru with another steady drive under rain and reached his best result this season in Alfa Romeo. Atwinke finished between Alfa Romeos in 5th after deduction of time penalties, followed by Endru. In fact, Atwinke, Endru, Altan and Dan a little bit behind were the main characters we saw on stream of the race giving us clean battling in these difficult conditions throughout the race. Mrmccann finished way behind of these six at P7, followed again by Tbran from a good amount of distance which even couldn’t benefit from Mrmccann’s 16 secs time penalty and finished 8th, helping Aston Martin get rid of their team eggplants as a reserve. Tbran actually had a good pace at the first half of the race and was battling in Top 6, until he had a broken wing as a result of Dan’s contact. Kingdom was the last driver on grid and was classified in P9.

Sir Ibbo was maybe one of the most unlucky on grid together with Rollie, retiring at lap 49 (47 for him) and not being classified as a result. Other eggplants belonged to Tan (who is very much used to them by now already), Albay, Leegoat, Ebird, Rollie, Keon and Cmrcnn.

The title fight has turned int a duo instead of trio between Rothnz and Altan after these results and Mercedes continued to lead WCC heading into Netherlands GP Next Sunday!

ENDRU SNATCHES DRAMATIC LAST-LAP WIN IN WET-DRY BELGIUM THRILLER

Image
Endru delivered a stunning victory at Spa for Williams, securing his first win of the season after a chaotic 44-lap race that transitioned from dry to wet in the final stages. He narrowly beat Ferrari’s NaeDangerDavid and Aston Martin’s AA_Mejg, who stormed from the very back of the grid after serving what can be called a “mental quali ban” to finish third... The Belgian Grand Prix began under dry skies, with NaeDangerDavid starting from pole and immediately defending hard. Endru, starting from P12, surged through the field, reaching second by lap five and managing his tires and fuel expertly. His early pace gave him a large advantage, but a mid-race safety car erased his 15-second lead. At the restart, Endru rebuilt a gap quickly but received a drive-through penalty that dropped him back. Determined to recover, he fought his way forward and reeled in David again—just as rain began to fall. The late rain turned the race into a high-risk strategy battle. David opted to pit for intermedi...

AA_MEJG TAKES BRAZIL GP WIN AS JORDAN CLINCHES SEASON 19 WDC CROWN

Image
In a dramatic feature race at Interlagos – the only sprint weekend in A1881 history – AA_Mejg took a hard-earned victory for Aston Martin, followed by newly crowned Season 19 world champion Jordan in the Alpine, with NaeDangerDavid delivering another impressive Ferrari drive to claim third. The championship fight for P2 and P3 in the WDC remains alive, as does the battle for the Williams–Alpine WCC crown, heading into the Las Vegas finale.. . The weekend began with Jordan taking the sprint win ahead of Mejg in a dominant low-drag, hard-tyre strategy display, the Alpine–Aston pairing finishing well clear of the rest. But in the feature race, starting from P5, Mejg quickly dispatched rivals, climbing to third within the first two corners. After chasing and passing Rian’s Williams by lap 4, he seemed in control, only to be briefly undercut by both Endru and Rian during the pit cycle. Showing the determination of a three-time champion, Mejg retook both positions and then managed the gap un...

SV5 MASTERS THE CARNAGE AT JEDDAH SEASON OPENER

Image
The Saudi Arabian GP kicked off the new season in brutal fashion, with SV5 taking a commanding win under the lights of Jeddah ahead of Bards and his teammate Selecta. The podium set the tone for a chaotic opener that was a likely scenario for Jeddah, more so when cockpit cam is forced... From pole, SV5 looked razor-sharp in his new Racing Bulls machinery, especially with the usual title heavyweights Jordan and Mejg absent, leaving the spotlight wide open. When the lights went out, that spotlight turned into a floodlight of chaos almost instantly. A massive first-lap incident at Turn 3 saw Justin clatter into NaeDangerDavid, with Elche also collected, triggering the first safety car and causing widespread damage down the field. Gordini was among those carrying wounds for the rest of the race, nursing underbody damage but somehow surviving it, having to pit on hards to change wing, which turned out to be a good choice with the second safety car. Up front, SV5, Bards in the Williams, and ...
