Azerbaijan: Ferrari da incubo, sogni d’oro per la Red Bull

Doppio DNF e 0 punti guadagnati in un altro weekend da incubo per la Ferrari. Il primo a ritirarsi è stato Sainz, che dopo aver perso il passo dei primi tre davanti si è fermato alla quarta curva annunciando un guasto meccanico alla radio.

Leclerc invece, che essendosi fermato al decimo giro per le dure aveva ereditato il primo posto dopo i pit stops delle Red Bull, ha avvertito del fumo uscire dal posteriore della F1-75 mentre era sul rettilineo. Il pilota monegasco è stato dunque forzato a entrare nella pit lane e ritirarsi.  

I problemi meccanici hanno colpito anche l’Alfa Romeo di Zhou e la Haas di Magnussen, entrambi team che utilizzano motori forniti dalla Ferrari. 

Al traguardo è stato un 1-2 per la Red Bull, con Verstappen davanti a Perez. Il pilota messicano si era qualificato meglio del compagno, ma durante la gara ha dovuto lasciar passare il campione in carica vista la sua velocità.

Un 1-2 estremamente pesante per quanto riguarda il mondiale, sia quello dei piloti che quello dei costruttori. Verstappen si porta ora a 150 punti, mentre Perez sale a quota 129, lasciando Leclerc in terza posizione a 116. Nei costruttori invece la Red Bull avanza a 279 punti, mentre la Ferrari rimane a 199. 

5 vittorie per la Red Bull nelle ultime 5, quattro di cui sono andate a Max Verstappen. Per quello che è, il mondiale sembra favorire il team di Milton Keynes. E quasi sicuramente quando tutte le somme saranno tirate, questo weekend a Baku rimarrà uno dei momenti, se non il momento pivotale della stagione. 

Il terzo gradino del podio è stato occupato da George Russell. Ancora una volta la consistenza del giovane bretone lo ha portato a capitalizzare sulle sfortune della Ferrari. Dietro di lui il compagno Hamilton per un ottima gara della Mercedes, e il quarto posto è valso un ‘driver of the day’ per Lewis. Nei punti anche Gasly, Vettel, le due Mclaren e le due Alpine. 

Azerbaijan: nightmare for Ferrari, sweet dreams for Red Bull

Double DNF and 0 points gained in another nightmare of a weekend for Ferrari. The first of the retirements was Sainz, who after having lost touch with the top 3 in front, had to slow down at turn 4, immediately announcing some mechanical failure on the radio. 

Leclerc on the other hand, having stopped in the tenth lap for hard tires, had inherited the first place after Red Bull’s pit stops. He then noticed white smoke coming off the back of his F1-75 and was forced to pull into the pits and retire. 

The mechanical problems also hit Alfa Romeo’s Zhou and Magnussen’s Haas, both teams who get their engines supplied by Ferrari. 

At the checkered flag it was a 1-2 for Red Bull, with Verstappen ahead of Perez. The Mexican driver out-qualified his teammate, but during the race he was told to let him get ahead given the sheer pace of the reigning world champ. 
 
A 1-2 that weighs a ton as far as the drivers and constructors championships go. Verstappen climbs to 150 points, while Perez follows at 129, leaving Leclerc at 116. In the constructors, Red Bull advances to 279 points, whereas Ferrari remain stuck at 199. 

5 victories from the last 5 for Red Bull, 4 of which were taken by Max Verstappen. For what it is, the championship seems to favor the team from Milton Keynes. And, almost certainly, when all is said and done, this weekend in Baku will remain one, if not the very pivotal moment of the season. 

Third place went to the ever-consistent George Russell, once again capitalizing on Ferrari’s misfortunes. Behind him slotted teammate Hamilton for a neat race from Mercedes, which was also worthy of driver of the day for Lewis. Points for Gasly, Vettel, the two Mclarens and the Alpines as well.
