The 2012 Grand Prix season is still reeling from the excitement of that last meet at the world famous Monaco Grand Prix. The world may have celebrated the Queens Diamond Jubilee since then, but it is now the turn of the royalty of motor racing to get back to the track and go for Gold.
The summer of shocks in the Grand Prix carried on from strength to strength, after this weekend’s pulsating Monaco Grand Prix. This result sees six winners in as many races this season. The 2012 Grand Prix has seen every meet this year have a different victor and now the Australian Mark Webber, with Red Bull Racing-Renault, can add his name to the list.
It is possibly the most famous Formula One race in the world. This is the event which is usually the first thought in peoples mind when they think of motor racing.
Sunday the 13th of May saw an exhilarating Formula 1 Gran Premio De Espana Santander 2012. This is the event also known as The Spanish Grand Prix.
There were fears this weekend’s Bahrain Grand Prix may be disrupted by protestors, but the race went ahead as planned. There may not have been as many crowds in the stands as usual, but we still had an exciting race in the desert.
It saw reigning champion Sebastian Vettel’s first win of the season. This is along with having two of the Lotus team on the podium for the first time in over 30 years, since the Spanish Grand Prix in 1979. Kimi Räikkönen was in second place and Romain Grosjean was third.
Vettel’s team mate, Mark Webber, whom had previously spoken of the situation in Bahrain, finished in fourth place. He was followed by Nico Rosberg.The Mercedes driver had a triumphant victory in China, although, this race was somewhat touched by controversy. The driver collided with both Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso and now faces a steward’s inquiry to see if he retains his position.
Force India capped off an eventful weekend in Bahrain with an incredible performance by Paul Di Resta, who came in sixth. He was in front of the aforementioned Fernando Alonso, who finished in seventh.
The McLaren team moreover found themselves beset with pit crew troubles once again. Hamilton reportedly left the pits with a sticking rear left wheel on two separate occasions. He eventually completed the race in eighth place. His teammate Jenson Button was forced to pull out at the 56th lap, with a broken exhaust. This amounted to McLaren’s worst showing of the 2012 Grand Prix season so far.
