Mercedes POWER Hamilton won the italian grand prix despite his awful start. Rosberg finished second, but that is good enough for him, as he is still leading the championship by 22 points over Hamilton. We knew that Ferrari has a bad car this year, but their home race was the worst. Alonso retired in the middle of the race and Raikkonen was just ninth. On the contrary, the drivers of Williams did a great job, finishing 3rd and 4th and now the team stands in 3rd place at the Constructors' Championship, over Ferrari. Ricciardo shined again, when he brilliantly passed Perez and Vettel to claim 5th position. Kvyat made the move of the day, when he didn't brake for the first turn and drove sideways on the grass in order to control the car and to return to track. The drivers McLaren fought again with Force India's Perez for 7th place. Magnussen was given another penalty and Button failed to pass the Mexican. Hence, the two teams are now separated by 1 point (110 for McLare...

Apart from Mercedes, only Ricciardo Ricciardo won the 2nd race in a row. That was the Australian's third victory this year, while Vettel is struggling just to get on the podium. Rosberg hit Hamilton on the first lap, while trying to gain the first place he lost to his team mate. That resulted a damaged front wing for the German and a flat tyre for the Briton. Hamilton was forced to drive several kilometers with that puncture, until he reached the pits. After that, he was outpaced and finally retired a few laps before the end. That was not the only problem of Rosberg. At some point, a strange ribbon got stuck on his car, right in front of his face. But despite that, he managed to claim 2nd place. PS: Magnussen was given a 20 second penalty because of unfair driving. At the last stage of the race, the Danish was 5th and he was holding back 3 champions: Alonso, Button and Vettel. The Spaniard tried to pass him several times without success. But in one attempt, he w...

He who smiles last, smiles best! Daniel Ricciardo won the second GP of his career in front of Alonso and Hamilton. That was an eventful race. Hamilton despite having started from the pit lane, took advantage of the safety car and finished third. On the contrary, Rosberg started from pole and lost time at the first period of the safety car. After that and because of the pit stops, the German fell behind Hamilton but was faster than the Briton, who was ordered to let the championship leader to pass. The former champion didn't obey, which ruined Rosberg's race. The award of the best choreography goes to Vettel, who had a 360 degree spin at the long straight, touched the pit wall, but was able to carry on, of course a few places down. The surprise of the race was Raikkonen. The Finn started from far behind and finished sixth, which is his best result this year.

Victory on home soil Hamilton won the British grand prix and closed the gap between him and Rosberg to just 4 points, despite having started from 6th place. The German driver had his first DNF of this season, due to a gearbox failure. The race stopped for about an hour, because Raikkonen lost control of his car on the first lap and hit the barrier, which had to be replaced. When the race restarted behind the pace car, Hamilton passed quite easily the two McLarens in front of him and started chasing his team mate. But he wasn't fast enough to catch up with him. Luck turned its back to Rosberg for the first time this year and the championship leader parked his single seater beside the track.
