Formula 1 - Austin 2014

I am kind of addicted to watching Formula 1 races. People who read my blog regularly might have noticed that I love talking about this subject. Since the new season has just started and so new regulations were introduced, there is a lot I can talk about. I want to start with the first race, though.
The first race of this season took place last weekend. (Important information: my favourite team is Red Bull). Since the new engines were introduced and many changes had been made, no one knew what to expect. Everything started on Friday in their first training sessions. Mercedes was always ahead of the other teams. On Saturday, when the qualification took place, Ricciardo did an excellent job. Sebastian Vettel had problems with the engine of his car and ended up on the 12th position. On Sunday the race took place. The first problems had occurred in the installation lap when two of the Marussia pilots could not even start the engine of their cars. Sebastian Vettel had a major problem with his car – I just do not know what it exactly was – too complicated for a girl like me. However, the rest of the race went smoothly apart from 7 cars not reaching the finishing line. In the end, Rosberg won this race ahead of Ricciardo and Magnussen. The two rookies did an excellent job. A few hours later, though, Ricciardo was disqualified from the race because I don’t know what happened.

Summing up, my favourite team had an awful weekend and I hate the new regulations that had been introduced.
