F1 GP Baku: Verstappen grows big in Ferrari catastrophe
This Sunday is one of the key days when one of our competitors steals a big bite from another rival, steals huge loot, marks territory, and significantly boosts prey morale. did. Ferrari Had to stand up from the ashes after the disaster Monaco.. It seemed difficult to get over such a bad day. Everything needed to get better.But the Italians had an even worse nightmare on the streets Baku..Ferrari burned some gold points again, but this time because of two reliability failures. Leclerc and Sainz are outTherefore leave a free way for Verstappen wins, Red Bull completes the double with Perez in 2nd place (Russell in 3rd place), and the Energy Drink team is sent off in the Constructors’ World Championship, giving them an 80-point advantage over the Italians... Perfect hit.
Red Bull Round Day, especially Max Round Day. In the city of fire and wind Verstappen fully embodies the strength of these two elements. It was an unstoppable strong wind, and the flames wiped everything out with a huge rhythm. He had no rivals. He was 9 points from Leclerc and headed to Canada with an advantage of 34 points over Monaco.Currently in 3rd place in the World Cup, Czech Republic was second with 21 points (he also took the fastest lap).
Leclerc, forget about 3 consecutive battles
Charles has won only two of the five races he started in pole position. Two of them left when they were leading in engine-related issues. One was this Sunday, but his victory wasn’t very clear.
Leclerc made a mistake from pole position, had a bad start and put too much brake on “Czech” Perez, making life difficult at the start. The Mexican overtook Max the day before to finish second in qualifying. He had to prove to his boss that his remarks this week were correct. They said there was no number one driver in Red Bull. ‘I was able to fight for the title with Max. He took the lead from the first corner and aimed for it. And Charles had a bad rhythm and had to choose the opposite strategy.
Monaco stopped very early on lap 11 and put on a hard rubber to lengthen the stint, but it was clear that there were too many races and he needed to stop again. Then Red Bull had to push to open the gap with Leclerc to break his strategy. Perez was trying, but Max Verstappen was late. He was taking care of the tires faster. Perez didn’t want to resist the Dutch. Rather, they told him not to do it. “There is no fight,” they told him on the radio. And Max passed by. After that, Mexicans and Max stopped by.
Leclerc was the leader, but he used old rubber. He had to push to open a gap where he could dream. The safety car would have opened the gates of heaven for him. But luck wasn’t on his side. There was still 30 laps of long laps on lap 21, but Leclerc saw his car smoking. His career is over. He retired for the second time in three races. Earlier this year, it looked like a solid, persuasive leadership with no cracks. Now it is leaking after leaving Barcelona due to another similar accident, the disaster in Monaco and this new breakdown. Leclerc left Miami with a 19-point lead. After three races, Charles is 34 years old, 3rd, Perez is 2nd and has great options to fight. For this you have to keep raising the bar: Max showed better race pace again on weekends when he wasn’t starting at all comfortably. He has achieved a champion, weight victory.
Of course, he got it with Perez’s good job, which he didn’t resist when he had to go through Max. There are also two bad stops from Red Bull to Mexico. The most obvious example was when both entered the pits on the same lap and the only virtual “safety car” left the event on lap 33. Max’s stop was 2.67 seconds.of Perez, From 4.4.But this should not undermine the victory Verstappen.. Max He was always much better. The Dutch did not fail and drove with courage and determination. In Red Bull’s third 1-2 of the season, he has won not only Max but also the team.
Sainz abandons for the third time in eight races
Carlos Sainz was in 4th place and had a good option to take risks with a strategy of getting on the podium or using a safety car. However, on lap 9, his car broke down and he had to park on turn three. This was Carlos’s abandonment for the third time in eight races and another zero 67 points away from leadership.
Russell, another podium.Alonzo, 7th
Once again, and it’s already 8 races. George Russell He is still the only driver to complete all the top 5 appointments. And this time he did it in 3rd place with much better results. The British have added a third podium for the course. This is the second time in the last three races and the first year wasn’t bad. Mercedes..George took advantage of the double abandonment Ferrari Fishing in a problematic river and going ahead Hamilton (4th) With a good final strategy to stop during the only “safety car virtual”, I was able to overtake the two with fresh rubber Alpha Tauri. Tsunoda declines to 13th place.Not like this GuthrieHe was sixth, ahead of Fernando Alonso, who returned to finish the race without error.
The Spaniards chose a complex strategy and significantly extended his first mission. The “safety car” would have given him multiple positions. However, there were no accidents in Baku, where the safety car plays a leading role. Nonetheless, the Oviedo man finished in 7th place, scoring points for three consecutive races, defeating two McLarens and his teammate Ocon in 10th place.
McLaren tried to put pressure on Alonso, but the low downforce made it difficult to keep the rear tires alive. This allowed him to speed up straight and protect himself. Walking people tried it, but Fernando always endured and added it again. And that’s what the Spaniards have already said “DAZN F1”. That he will be nervous before the harassment of the orange car is more than “impossible”.

For one more season, 19 in a row from 2007, Toni Bou, together with Busto and Marcelli, achieved their annual goal of winning titles in all outdoor and indoor competitions: Montesa Cota 4RT, X Trial, Trial GP and Trial of Nations. The Repsol Honda Team rider has taken his world title tally to 38 and, if the back tendon injury does not interfere with the indoor competition in 2025-26, where he is already in the lead, he will set off for his next year in 2026, which will be an “incredible challenge to achieve 40 titles at the age of 40”.
In 2025, one of the “greatest players”, Adam Raga, six-time world champion from 2003 to 2006 and historical rival of Toni Bowe, retired. He passes the baton to Jaime Busto and Gabriel Marcelli.
Josep Garcia also won a pair of enduro titles.

Two-time Formula 1 champion Fernando Alonso added the new high-performance SUV Aston Martin DBX S to his car collection. The driver took delivery of the car, valued at more than $260,000, a few days before Christmas in Monte Carlo, where he was photographed next to the new product near the Aston Martin dealership in Monaco.
Powered by Mercedes’ 727 horsepower 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8, the DBX S reaches 100 km/h in just 3.3 seconds. The new SUV joins Alonso’s collection, which already includes the Aston Martin Valiant and Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR.
With 2026 rule changes approaching, Alonso and Aston Martin hope the new DBX S will signal the beginning of better times. The team’s new technical partnership with Honda and Adrian Newey’s experience pave the way for Aston Martin to challenge for top spot next season.

Lewis Hamilton reveals details of new F1 season preparation regime
Seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton has admitted he has had to significantly change his daily training regime as he gets older to cope with the physical and mental demands of the World Championship. The 40-year-old Ferrari driver is preparing for his 20th season in F1 and is the second oldest driver on the grid after Fernando Alonso.
The Briton stated that his preparation is now much tighter than at the beginning of his career, with recovery playing a key role in maintaining a competitive level.
“The regime has changed, it has improved. I still love running. This morning I ran 6 to 8 miles. Then I took an ice bath. But above all, the first thing I do as soon as I get out of bed is stretch,” Hamilton said.
According to the pilot, in order not to gain excessive weight, he limits strength training and prefers pilates, yoga and interval training. At the same time, there are two elements that he does not reject under any circumstances.
“Ice baths are not an option. Before, I didn’t really think about recovery: I just trained and got on with my life. Now stretching and ice baths are things I force myself to do every day,” Hamilton emphasized.
The seven-time champion athlete attaches great importance to mental health as well as physical training. He admitted that breathing exercises, meditation and yoga helped him cope with the stress of the 24-stage season.
The Ferrari driver concluded: “An ice bath teaches you to control your breathing and fight the urge to give up. This helps me stay positive throughout the year.”
