Sainz, second place, best against superior McLaren

Before that, the final appointment to compete for the Constructors’ World Championship depended entirely on Norris not dropping out of the lead.

At Woking, both men threw hands at each other at the start when Verstappen, who was starting fourth, took Piastri out of the fight completely. Max overtook Sainz in the first few metres, got too optimistic and crashed into the inside of Turn 1. As a result, he made contact with Piastri and both spun. Óscar, who was at the back of the pack, had no choice, and when he tried to recover, he touched Colapinto and received a 10-second penalty. There’s nothing to do.

Fortunately for the Englishman, Lando Norris did not suffer from that start. He started first and maintained his starting position without suffering from pain. Carlos Sainz couldn’t get closer.

The Brit and the Spaniard raced in rhythm at the front, with only two stopping. Carlos got in front of Rand to attack when Rand was 3″8″. And after the Englishman stopped, Carlos was two seconds behind. He managed to reduce his disadvantage to 1.9, but this time he made no mistakes and pressed the car’s advantage, even though he was shouldering all the responsibility for McLaren.

Ferrari fought tooth and nail, but it was an impossible task. Carlos Sainz bid farewell to Ferrari in second place, while Charles Leclerc was able to maximize his team’s result with a stunning comeback worthy of a future champion, finishing third. If Norris failed and Sainz passed Norris, the constructors’ title went to Ferrari. But that error never arrived.

Leclerc began his comeback with an incredible start, rising from 19th to 8th.. He made it look simple, like someone who would “play around” and go into easy mode and pass most drivers from behind in the first corner. Monaco also benefited from the madness of the first round.

Disastrous farewell for Perez, Colapinto, Magnussen and Bottas

On that first lap, Bottas made contact with Perez and the ‘Czech’ had to retire, possibly bidding farewell to F1 and Red Bull. It wasn’t the only disaster of the day, as Bottas later suffered a puncture and was forced to bid farewell to F1, taking Magnussen with him. Furthermore, Colapinto was forced to give up due to contact with Piastri, bidding farewell to his golden chance in F1.

Fernando Alonso had nothing to lose and set himself the goal of having as much fun as possible. The aim is to score points in the last race of the year and bid farewell in the best possible way to 2024, which he hopes will be erased from his memory due to Aston Martin’s poor performance. Wait much longer than 2025 before facing it. He wanted to say goodbye to the course at the point. And he did it.
