This time, the main news before the start of the Formula 1 weekend was the upholding of Renault's protest against Racing Point over the copying of its brake duct design. The FIA fined Racing Point €400,000 and docked 15 points in the Formula 1 team standings, while allowing them to continue using third-party vents. Many fans have once again begun to push the topic of a possible podium finish for Nico Hülkenberg. The German qualified third and spent most of the race in fourth place, but his sheer pace wasn't enough to challenge for the lead group, especially given the lack of action in the race itself that could have helped him regain his coveted position. Incidentally, even though the tires didn't blow out this time, they were a key factor in the final placings. During the race, the Mercedes drivers were the most vocal about increased wear. Following an investigation into the tire blowouts last week, Pirelli ordered all F1 teams to increase tire pressure to prevent a repeat of the punctures. And according to Toto Wolff after the race, this very fact was the cause of the intense bubbling on their tires. Even if they had copied Max's strategy, they would still have been slower. Daniil Kvyat managed to redeem himself last week. Like last time, he immediately made up several positions early on, and given the start on harder tires, these overtakes became even more significant. Otherwise, Daniil's race followed the same pattern as Verstappen's, so Kvyat also achieved success in his category, the maximum for which is a points finish. Charles Leclerc, however, was a strong performer in both the first and second races. The Monegasque driver was one of the few to use a one-stop strategy, and by managing his tires wisely, he managed to reclaim fourth place. It was a disappointing race for McLaren. Their previous pace from last week was completely gone this time. Lando Norris encountered overheating and tire consumption issues during the race, and Carlos's lug wrench failed during his pit stop, causing Sainz to lose a significant amount of time and, despite his best efforts, was unable to make up for it. Renault's result was similar. For the second race in a row, the French team was aiming for a points finish with both cars, but due to Ricciardo's own error, which he jokingly called the "Seb spin," the team ultimately settled for eighth place for Ocon, who managed to recover from his penalty for blocking George Russell in qualifying thanks to the same advantageous one-stop strategy. The Formula 1 weekend followed the usual pattern for all the underdog teams. Williams performed well in qualifying, but again lost out to everyone in the race. Alfa Romeo was the exact opposite, and the Haas drivers' brutal battle for position once again led to penalties. #f1 #formula1 #racing #sport #motorsport #sport #greatbritain #f170 The final results of the Formula One 70th Anniversary Grand Prix were as follows: 1.
