It was time for the Canadian Grand Prix at the Circuit of Gilles Villeneuve, named after the legendary Ferrari driver. He died in 1982 during the free practice of the Belgian Grand Prix. Despite not having won any championship, his magnificent performances left a mark in the history of this sport.
The circuit is very fast, has zones for large acceleration and strong braking. The start of the race is usually difficult because of its narrow track but the most celebrated point of the circuit is the Wall of Champions. A real trap located in the right protection of curve thirteen, at the exit of the chicane from entry to finish. It was named after the accidents involving Damon Hill, Jacques Villeneuve, and Michael Schumacher.
This is a circuit that favors the Mercedes team, an advantage that undoubtedly was able to give the team a double victory and a deserved victory for Lewis Hamilton. The English driver had a weekend he will never forget.
After making a spectacular lap time on Saturday, he took pole. He didn’t only want to win the pole, he wasn’t prepared to give it up either. In this way, Hamilton was now equal to his idol, Ayrton Senna, in terms of pole positions with 65. It was fitting Hamilton achieved this feat on the circuit where he got his first victory in 2007. The family of Senna gave him a copy of the helmet of the Brazilian pilot.
The Mercedes team, like Hamilton, knew they could not fail again. They needed to cut the points of advantage that put Sebastian Vettel at the head of the driver’s World Championship. This time they not only succeeded but luck also played in their favor.
At the start, Max Verstappen overtook Vettel, damaging the German’s car forcing him to pit and replace the front wing. But it was not only the incident at the start, Carlos Sainz was touching Romain Grosjean’s car while trying to overtake him, making Grosjean lose control and hitting Felipe Massa.
Force India gave a surprising performance having endured the race pace well. They performance well at the end of the race. Sergio Perez and Esteban Ocon tried to take third position from Daniel Ricciardo. They tried to get ahead of each other but were beaten by the great pace of Vettel who was determined to not lose a single point against Hamilton.
What failed again was the Honda engine, two laps before the end of the race. It couldn’t have happened at a worse time with Fernando Alonso in tenth place and within the points zone. The situation has become so critical the Spanish driver has given an ultimatum to the team if they want him to remain in their team.
While McLaren begins to consider other option if Honda does not get to react in time. For the moment, Alonso will be last on the grid in Baku. Another change and bigger update. Surely and evolution in the MGUH.
