Race Recap: 2014 Italian Grand Prix goes heavy on rescue and recovery

Filed under: Motorsports , Europe , Infiniti , Mercedes-Benz , Ferrari , Racing , McLaren In the two weeks it’s taken Formula One to move from Belgium to Italy, fleet-footed rumor has outrun the driver transfer market – Fernando Alonso can’t issue enough denials of a departure from Ferrari , McLaren isn’t sure what it wants to do with its drivers, Lotus has found out why it stinks this year and that the problem can’t be fixed this year, and Nico Rosberg is said to have donated a team-ordered six-figure fine to charity to atone for his Belgian waffling. Oh, and Lewis Hamilton regained his pole-grabbing form. That’s how the Mercedes AMG Petronas man found himself at the head of the grid for the Italian Grand Prix, ahead of his teammate Rosberg by a quarter of a second.

Race Recap: 2014 German Grand Prix is relapse and recovery

Filed under: Motorsports , Europe , Infiniti , Mercedes-Benz , Ferrari , Racing , McLaren The 2014 German Formula 1 Grand Prix is the hump-day race in the season and the penultimate chance for drivers and teams to rack up points before the summer break. Trying to stay on top after his first DNF of the year at the British Grand Prix , Mercedes AMG Petronas driver Nico Rosberg didn’t have to wait until the race for misfortune to find Lewis Hamilton ; his British teammate crashed out of the Q2 qualifying session due to a brake failure, then had to change his gearbox due of the crash, a calamity that left him starting 20th on the grid. Rosberg took pole ahead of the Williams duo of Valtteri Bottas and Felipe Massa , with Kevin Magnussen surprising everyone with a fourth place in his McLaren .

Filed under: Motorsports , Infiniti , Mercedes-Benz , Ferrari , UK , Racing , McLaren Qualifying for the British Formula One Grand Prix was just as much a surprise for fans as it was for teams. Certain team weather radar displays didn’t accurately pinpoint storm systems over the track, and in the case of at least two teams, the lack of data was compounded by poor decision making. That’s how both Ferraris and both Williams got kicked out of qualifying in Q3 – the drivers already on track took advantage of a dry spell between rains, but Ferrari and Williams waited too long to get back out, and by the time they did it had started raining again.
