About a year ago and after a start of regular season (results because of benefits everyone knew the superiority of the Red Bull RB6), Red Bull suffered for the first time. NI Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber could fight for the victory in the Grand Prize of Canada and that was a rarity.
On the contrary, and after getting a (the only season) pole wrapped in the controversy of the gasoline, Lewis Hamilton got the second victory of the year allowing him to place as a leader. Escorting Lewis Hamilton on the podium, teammate Jenson Button and Fernando Alonso, three world champions in a same podium for the first time in 20 years.
And we cannot leave the opportunity to talk about the controversy of gasoline. After gaining a wonderful return giving the pole, Lewis Hamilton ran out of petrol in the run-up to the prior to the finish line. The British neither short nor lazy down his McLaren and pushed the car even though it was eventually rescued by the Commissioners.
In search of the pole, McLaren had rushed the gasoline. The regulation did not say otherwise. Still, McLaren was sanctioned by take a long time to arrive to the closed Park and from Canada, the rule was changed to compel pilots to arrive at the pit-lane on its own, unless greater evil.
More than gasoline, if something characterized the Grand Prize of Canada of 2010 were their tires. For the first time in the season, Bridgestone had a jump between selected compounds. Placed in the Red Bull, the superblandos not lasted more than 10 laps which he did that the anglo-austriaca team could not aspire to victory. From there, the Japanese automaker was aware that the show could put their wheels. In the FIA they understood and their ideas were made reality by Pirelli to perfection.
As for Fernando Alonso, the Spanish floor the podium following his departure in fourth position. A podium that knew little because it was fighting for victory and had it in their hands. It was not possible. For its part, Pedro de la Rosa returned to leave for the umpteenth time while Jaime Alguersuari left behind Sebastien Buemi (also the Swiss scored), complaining about much of the lack of grip in his single-seater.
