2013 German Grand Prix Review and thoughts on the race

Round nine of the F1 season, a quick review of the German Grand Prix, and thoughts on the race itself.

Good points

• Sebastian Vettel (started second to finish with a race win at his home Grand Prix) 
• Lotus (Kimi Raikkonen, finished 2nd; Romain Grosjean, finished 3rd)
• Fernando Alonso (finished 4th)
• McLaren (Jenson Button, finished 6th; Sergio Pérez finished 8th)
• Nico Hülkenberg (finished 10th)
• Charles Pic (finished 17th, ahead of Caterham team-mate Giedo van der Garde and Max Chilton)

Bad points

• Williams (Pastor Maldonado, finished 15th; Valtteri Bottas, finished 16th, a right front wheel gun both cost Pastor Maldonado Valtteri Bottas and points this race)
• Jules Bianchi (DNF, Engine)
• Jean-Éric Vergne (DNF, Hydraulics)
• Felipe Massa (DNF, Spin)

If a Grand Prix was similar or déjà vu from another Grand Prix, this race would be similar to the Bahrain Grand Prix early on the season in my opinion. As this was a mildly easy race win for the current F1 World Champion Sebastian Vettel, to take his forth race win of the season, after passing pole sitter Lewis Hamilton on the first lap of the race to take the win, despite a late charge from Kimi Raikkonen.

Meanwhile, Kimi Räikkönen finishing in second place despite a possibly race win at the end. While Romain Grosjean finished in third place, one of his best race performances of the season.

Next stop the Hungarian Grand Prix in three weeks time.

End of blog for how, new post soon. Bye.
