Grand Prix of Abu Dhabi F1 2018: Race Results

Last race of the F1 season 2018 in the Abu Dhabi GP with a race that seemed boring before starting with the few overtakings that are in this circuit and how controlled it seems that everything is always in previous GPs played here. And we bid farewell to this year's World Championship with Lewis Hamilton at the top of the podium followed by Sebastian Vette and also Max Verstappen who has had some problems with his mechanics in this race and also at the start, when he fell to 9th place and it was time to come back, but finally it has reached the podium.

Marcus Ericsson's bitter farewell that says goodbye to F1 to start again in the American Indy. A race in which his Sauber has not allowed him to finish when his Ferrari engine has said enough. Neither Esteban Ocon has finished well, another of those who say goodbye as official driver to be a test driver for Mercedes next year, and whose engine was also very close to the limit in this race and has not lasted. Another of the broken engines has been that of Gasly, in this case the Honda of his Toro Rosso, as well as that of Kimi Rakkönen who has had problems with his engine also very early in the race.

Good for Vandoorne, another who says goodbye and he has not had too many problems and he has been able to cross the finish line before saying goodbye to F1 to go to Formula E. He who has not done well, and not mechanics, has been to Nico Hülkenberg which has already capsized a few meters from the start when a Haas has touched it from the side and the German's car has taken several turns and has been down. Something critical, as it seemed that it would catch fire and the commissaries could not get it out because the car was upside down. They have been able to turn it around and leave it without problems for Nico. On the other hand, Carlos Sainz has had a very good rhythm in his Renault, the tires have been very good in this circuit and they had a very good pace to be close to the podium. Finally Carlos has achieved a 6th ...

As I say a very exciting race and entertaining to settle this last race, with many overtaking on the track, many interesting battles on the track, and even the rain has timidly appeared because he did not want to miss the last race. Something totally unusual in Yas Marina, which never rains, but this time it has done so to timidly wet the finish line without consequences for the race. A rain that has fired the last race of Fernando Alonso , with an 11th place, has reached the end, has been escorted (matched) by Vettel's Ferrari and Hamilton's Mercedes, have reached the goal straight and they have been spinning to celebrate it. Very nice as I say, a final hug from his teammates and maximum respect for the Spanish driver.
