GORDINI WINS IN BAKU AND FULFILLS HIS DUTY ONCE MORE…

(Greatest of All Reserves) GOARdini, did an amazing job by winning in Azerbaijan GP, helping Mercedes limit damage when both drivers were missing. Dan drove extraordinarily and brought his damaged McLaren as second to finish line. Rothnz took the last step of podium from Rollie’s hands with a last second overtake…

Race began with  Crownless King Altan on pole and he was able to keep his lead until the end of 3 safety cars entering in the first half of the race. With the exit of last SC, Altan began doing his mistakes and Gordini increased his pace. With Endru retiring in castle section due to a skill issue, while he was leading, Gordini gained the lead and safely brought it home.

The Swede was cheerful after delivering what was expected of him once more:

“The day after the race, I was sleeping very well. Maybe because of my win yesterday. It’s always fun and gives a nice feeling.

But it wasn’t a easy win. I realize already in the quali that I use more wing than the majority of the field. I expect to be higher up but only managed to make P6.

From my pov, the start went off nicely, but turned over to a SC period almost immediately. In the restart and at lap 7 I was P3 and make my only mistake. I was close to an Alfa Romeo and missed my braking point and ended up in the run off area. Fall back to P10.

After that incident I focus to be fast in the curvy parts to to compensate for my low speed on the start/finish straight.

The race went on, lots of SC periods and a couple of mistakes and crashes from others take me up to P2.

When Endru crashed out himself in the castle, I took over P1 and realized that I’m going to win the race.

So, with this word I hope the AMG Petronas Mercedes are satisfied with the points to the team. It's a shame that both cars didn't score important points.

I am grateful for the opportunity to drive for Mercedes. I thank you and wish Ebird all the best in the future.”

Behind Gordini was Dan, who reaped the fruits of his immense pressure on Atwinke in last 5 laps, forcing him the mistake and retirement and opened the way for McLaren for double podium with Rollie following him. Yet Rollie was extra careful to try bring it home safe and found the beast Rothnz on his tail in straight in last lap, and this mistake denied a McLaren double podium.

Behind Rollie in P5 was Keon, who was consistent as always and brought important points to Haas. Altan followed him in P6, with a big disappointment where two of his biggest rivals for title were missing. He was followed by Mrmccann who seem to be very successful in finishing around the same positions in whatever car he drives, and this time in Ferrari. Tan finished 8th, becoming the victim of his own teammate’s mistake, and settling for 8th where he had great pace in practices. Leegoat finished 9th, after a race he was involved in too many incidents despite having a very good pace. Butcher got one of his best career results, denying an eggplant and taking 12 points with P10. (He had collected 19 points in total last season). Asln reserved for Callmegogeta and was able to bring more points than his teammate Endru, after being absent on track for a very long time. Atwinke couldn’t handle the pressure once more and despite being P2 on Lap 25, he retired his car yet was able to be classsified as P12 due to laps completed…

Endru, Cajoco, Kingdom, Selecta, Sir Ibbo, Shmodusg, Tuznani and Cmrcnn all were eggplanted in the dangerous soil of Baku.

The excitement in A1881 will continue in Miami 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 ...
