Sunday, April 26th, 2009 | Formula 1 | 1 Comment

Vettel (2nd), Button (1), Trulli (3rd) and £? (One of Brawn)

The winds are still in favor of Brawn, until when? Even Toyota dominated the qualifying, the cars of Brawn again proven that in the race are better (more constant) to the other, although we can not say the same about the strategy.

At the start of the race , we had some disputes incredible wheel-to-wheel literally. Who was hurt was Massa , who was touched by the mate Raikkonen and had to make a pitstop to change the nozzle, playing the race had finished in the distant 14th place. As proof of the decadence of Ferrari in the 35th lap, Massa took a turn from Button leader.

Button with his brilliant performance baseline, even though not one of the lightest, left P4 and won the P1 on lap 13 and after his 10 points were no longer threatened.

In the other positions:

2 - Vettel - once again proved to be an excellent pilot, even without rain

3 - Trulli - had the same performance of drills, eventually losing to P1 and P2 Button for Vettel

4 - Hamilton - has a constant race and poor away from a world champion

5 - Barrichello - could have scored a double , if not for three pitstops strategic fiasco. Still had invaded his official website: click and read more about

6 - Raikkonen - can say he did a good race, started 10th and scored the first points of Ferrari

7 - Glock - had problems with the car still managed to score two points

8 - Alonso - Just as Hamilton made a steady race and also weak for a double world champion

We reached the end of the 1st time in Formula 1. Now the teams go to the locker room where the changes could lead them to glory or failure.
