Deae Rising Shine~

After a double pole with the young Leclerc in front, the race brought a double trauma with Vettel - the Spinner returns - spins and then loses his front wing shortly after and Leclers engine couldnt recover energy, which made him slower and only a safety car saved his first podium because Verstappen right behind him then couldn't pass anymore. Both Renaults failing in the same lap/corner without collission is just as bad luck(Especially Ricciardo) who shares 2 failures in 2 races with Grosjean(Haas) and Sainz(McLaren). At least Norris scored big and brought the first points for McLaren what makes Williams now the clear last place once again, but at least Kubica could keep up with his teammate, even beeing ahead from time to time. Gasly also scores for Red Bull this time. Others earning there first points this year besides Norris and Gasly are Albon in Toro Rosso and Perez in Racing Point.
