An exciting race with ups and downs for Max.
A chaotic start is where the early birds this morning in China are treated. Daniel Ricciardo picks up immediately the lead of Rosberg, while Kimi were times by a touche in the first turn his front wing, all is lost. Lewis Hamilton is also in the first round, not unbroken by and directly to the burner. For Verstappen, there is not a great start, his ninth place from the first passage is converted into a twelfth spot.
Phew, while Ricciardo by the anxious fast Mercedes of Rosberg past is plugged in, flips his band is suddenly full of from. Good luck in an accident on a straight piece of happens, and the cheerful Australian his car on the track can hold, and that he was just meters away from the pit lane. However, for the security of the safetycar on the track and that means that half of the field, understand the job and join for the burner.
If the whole mess at the beginning of round 9 away may, is Rosberg a comfortable first place, behind it there are a number of laggards who do not are stopped, drive Verstappen eighteenth, and we meet Hamilton even on the second-to-last place. That changes quickly, because Verstappen can were times, and Hamilton is not behind the hold and drops even to a twentieth place…
Of course Rosberg immediately flown, but the battle behind is pretty exciting. The best papers are there for Red Bull’s Kvyat, who already have Mass quickly manages to outwit and hunting on the Mercedes of Rosberg can open. Verstappen is now working on an almost impossible task in the points riding on that moment, four cars caught up and is sixteenth. Team-mate Sainz is doing considerably better business, and the sixteenth round as eighth.
In round 21, Verstappen, which at that time aided by the stops of others seventh drive. The field is, sadly, Max is very compact and so is the young Dutchman fifteenth back on to the track. Halfway through the race, Max three places won and he is twelfth. The points to come within range, but they achieve will have a tough task to prove.
The thrills and spills from the first part of the race translates not to a wildly exciting space in the middle. At the front is the Rosberg that the service belongs to, followed by Kvyat and Vettel, while Sainz on place eight successful were times and Hamilton behind him, manages to keep. In round 37 Kvyat his third place to give it to Vettel.
Although Verstappen eventually even fourth runs, takes a pit stop back to the twelfth place, just behind team-mate Sainz. At the front is the happy more exciting, where Daniel Ricciardo both Hamilton as Mass verschalt and opstoomt to the fourth place. A moment later, enjoy also were times in Hamilton, which today is clearly his day. Notable: eight rounds before the end are still all the cars in competition!
In the final drive Verstappen over Sainz and know he is in any case one tip to rake. Wop wop, a little later is even place nine are part. That will probably continue, because Valterti Bottas runs too far away and too hard to get even in six rounds in it.
At least… Verstappen is still to the rear wing of Bottas and enjoy the Williams in the penultimate round! Also Sainz comes to the tail of Bottas, but clearly has more difficulty with the Williams. Ultimately, if the Spaniard did to Bottas over to cross, who clearly has trouble with the gang in his car with worn tires.
The final outcome is no big surprise. Rosberg is supreme, though we are Hamilton’s only on place seven. Ferrari picks up with Vettel the second place while Red Bull good doing business with place three and four. Eventually leaves Toro Rosso with two cars in the points, Verstappen is eighth, Sainz ninth.
