Imola race week
Wednesday 15th may
Alex Albon signed a multi year contract with Williams.
Thursday 16th may
Sebastian vettel planned a whole tribute today and for the weekend. All of F1,f2 and f3 went on a run around the track for ayrton and Roland and had a little ceremony at the statue of Ayrton with the Brazilian and Austrian flags displayed.
Also the MotoGP team Ducati have a tribute livery in the colors of Ayrton senna's helmet to honor him this weekend. It is really nice that even another sport is doing something for him . Sebastian is supposed to be driving one of Senna's McLaren cars around imola this weekend so I can't wait to see that.
Qualifying
Q1- 12 mins to go and albon sliding off for a second. 8 minutes to go there was a yellow flag but it was literally just for a few seconds. 6 and a half minutes Logan in the gravel for a second. Ten seconds later Fernando does the same they both get back on track immediately though.
Alonso last place.
Q2- nothing all that interesting happened except Yuki in third and Perez in 11th being knocked out by Daniel
Q3- nothing
Race day- today before the race Sebastian vettel raced around Ayrton senna's last race winning car for a few laps as he was going around he brought out both the Brazilian flag and the Austrian flag for Ayrton and Roland. After he got out the car he put both flags on the car and bowed down to it. In the interview after he said he was getting emotional in the car and that he was shouting their names when driving.
Lap ten Alex is just out of the pit but he's going slow apparently a tire isn't on properly. He went into the pit and it was quickly sorted.
RB pit both cars in lap 13 which is strangely early. Albon gets 10 second penalty for the tire not being on properly.
Lap 25 verstappen pits and ends up 4th. Hamilton into the gravel for a second.
Lap 55 Alex Albon retired from the race. Race control noted an incident between Zhou and ocon.
