F1 World Championship 2019 - GP Russia: standings
Charles Leclerc (Ferrari)
Charles Leclerc moral conqueror Russian Grand Prix: started from pole position (fourth in a row, last driver Ferrari it was some one who succeeded Michael Schumacher 19 years ago), provided Vettel with a wake, allowing him to overtake Hamilton and even take the lead in the first part of the race.
An effective strategy twice destroyed by Vettel: the first (voluntarily) when he refused to give up first position - contrary to pre-race tactics - to his fellow Monaco, the second (unwittingly) when the hybrid squad broke car number 5. The silver shooters (who still owe were to make pit stops and did it in virtual safety car mode).
Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes)
Lewis Hamilton he returned to the top step of the podium after three hunger strikes and is increasingly leading F1 world 2019.
Without Vettel's departure, the five-time world champion would have to be content with finishing in the top three.
Valtteri Bottas (Mercedes)
Valtteri Bottas found continuity by winning the third podium in the last four Grand Prix F1 world 2019.
The Finnish driver showed himself excellently in the second part of the race. Sochi defend second place (and first his teammate Hamilton) from Leclerc's attacks.
Max Verstappen (Red Bull)
Max Verstappen it is not going through a great period: only one podium in the last four world races and fourth place in Russia after takeoff from ninth position.
A race that must be compared to the race of Comrade Albon, the fifth under the checkered flag, but starting from the pit lane ...
Mercedes
La Mercedes Won Sochi with the help of luck and conquered Doppietta thanks to the strategy. Starting tactics with medium tires made it possible to postpone the pit stop as much as possible and decided to race.
However, it should be said that if the German team (invincible in Russian Grand Prix with six wins in six editions) before Vettel's departure to the pit stops, today we will talk about another Ferrari triumph.
