It should be Valtteri Bottas competition.

Three weeks earlier he had missed in Bahrain secondly, when the bypass try Sebastian Vetteliin missed the last round at the beginning of the lame. Two weeks earlier he had lost the victory, while Red bull's Daniel Ricciardo managed to schedule an extra pit-stop safety car period.

Bottas had done years ago in Azerbaijan GP in everything correctly, the tactics down, but the track left small carbon fiber pieces tore my rear tire to shreds three laps before the chequered flag and took Bottakselta not only also won the world series for the top spot.

– oh, my goodness. It just exploded, Bottas said on the radio in disbelief.

Bottas parked his car track in turn three and slammed the headrest to the curb. Helmet the authentic on lean been a Finnish made clear to everyone, that nobody would for a moment any thing approaching him. The world spread pictures tell everything about the disappointment that the inside of the helmet's churning.

Baku began bottas of seven months in the wilderness, through which he called openly of his career more difficult.

Now, the new season the first few days, he has done just that, what a great dream – a world championship – the achievement requires. Occasional despite the difficulties, the belt has a win and two second place. At the same time he's repeated the interview to another how last season's disappointment has been wiped out of view and translated that into a strength.

When the F1 circus is back for the coming weekend in Baku, Bottaksella have the opportunity to complete it, what year then missed three rounds to the head.

– Valtteri drove last year's awesome competition. He has started the season very well, and I'm sure he has a hunger to achieve those points, which last year did not fulfill, Mercedes team principal Toto Wolff described the Mercedes on the homepage of ward's mental state.

Mercedes will get through the fourth race in the ideal situation. Bottas and Lewis Hamilton have reached the beginning of the season three double-beat, and world-leading manufacturers of two of the Ferrari is already 57 points. Drivers side Hamilton leads Bottasta by six points, and the next you are more than 20 points away from Bottaksesta.

– Three double wins three races were a great start to the season. We were able to utilize our potential to the maximum, even though our car wasn't always the fastest, Wolff said.

Baku syheröisellä the track is through the longest, about two kilometres long, the gas in the bottom of the driven part, so the Ferrari is very straight ahead under cover of more than a third of the track in a clear advantage over others. This is offset by Bakus also found in the really slow corners, of which Mercedes is clearly ahead of the others.

– it Is interesting to see what the barn is capable of best combined performance of the long straight and slow corners, Wolff thought.

Performance, but also the strategy is in Baku a very key role in competition success. When the peak speeds are fast and secured areas not in practice at all, already we can say almost for sure that in the race I'll see at least one safety car period.

in This regard, Mercedes is supporting the point to his lead with an advantage over others. Unlike Ferrari, Mercedes is the weekend only and only to lose, and so it can leave the most foolish risk you take.

– Performance is not the only significant thing. Equally important is to stay out of trouble. Baku has seen in recent years, really interesting competition, and I am sure that this year differs in that respect from the previous, Wolff said.
