DRAMATIC ENDING BRINGS ENDRU A LEGENDARY RETURN TO GRID ON JEDDAH!
Saudi Arabia GP gave A1881 an incredible and memorable race, ending with youngster Endru win in Alpine just a nose ahead of Rianc’s Alfa Romeo. Rollie was once more in podium with Ferrari...
Rianc was on pole once more but the majority of the race saw
Haggisnt and Vithjalmen give a fierce battle for lead, until the red flag restart on Lap
47. Their fair and hard racing ended at the restart with Vithjalmen’s McLaren
ending up in Haggisnt’s Alpine’s back, causing a mayhem which only Endru and
Rian could save themselves. The last 3 laps were breathtaking and Endru was
able to take and then keep his 0.1 seconds lead until the finish line, giving him an
incredible win despite having a quali ban, also a big present to Cajoco while
wildcarding for him...
Endru was welcome back warmly by the grid, and he seemed to
enjoy the way he came back too:
“It was hard race, I didn’t expect this to be the outcome.
Starting from p18 i knew i just had to keep calm and avoid
any possible incidents, but than later on in the 2nd stint i crashed into my teammate
which was a disaster because we both got damage and lost time.
I managed to get into p4 at the end, after the last safety
car and then the red flag came.
I was “lucky” with the crash after the red flag, it meant it
was just me and Rian, I anyway don’t know how i managed to beat him
It felt like a great comeback racing all of you guys again,
i hope to see all of you in Hungary.”
Rianc surely deserved it as much, yet he had to settle for
P2 by the slight margin, still securing his place in P3 in WDC. Rollie wouldn’t
be getting it if it were no red flags, but still would be ahead of Rothnz
anyway... This brought him his second podium in a row after Monaco.
Rothnz in Haas finished behind Rollie, at where he should be…
Tbran finished behind Rothnz, bringing important points where his leading
teammate had a hurts-to-watch retirement. Behind him was Selecta in Williams, collecting
the most points for the team together with Jonboi at P8, while also saving
himself from 6 eggplants in once. In between the Williams was Kast in Redbull,
giving him his all time best result in A1881.
Altan with his Mercedes became the victim of a
misunderstanding of Rollie after red flags, to be settled by a serious amount
of beers... Yet he was classified as 9th in end results. Haggisnt and Vithjalmen
were also classified as 10th and 11th, after the saddening incident at L47 to end the
race of both.
Burtay’s Ferrari became the victim of Dan’s Aston, also
taking the life of the innocent bystander Elgogeta in Mercedes. With this Dan has been able to trigger the
first red flag in A1881 history, which gave him his only possible chance of giving
an interview by saying:
Dan: “Technically, I
was parked.
I'm honoured to be the
A1881 crash dummy.”
Sir Ibbo, Tvoje, Mrmccann, Butcher, Kingdom and Valward were
the other eggplant owners of this memorable race. The excitement in A1881 will
continue on Hungaroring after a 2 weeks Christmas break...
Merry christmas to A1881 family!
