Haas, Cream of the Crap
The Azerbaijan Grand Prix is a road race through the city streets of the ancient walled city Baku which juts on a peninsula into the Caspian sea.
The day would belong to Mercedes, and Valtteri Bottas. By lap 3 the Mercedes Silver Arrows of Bottas and Hamilton were able to seperate a 5 second gap. Bottas Started on pole and held his first position through the first few turns as his teammate was challenging to pass. Once Bottas secured P1 he would never look.
Kevin Magnussen started in P12 and would finish 13th. Haas split the strategy for their two drivers. Magnussen was on a 2 stop strategy. He started on soft tires hoping to find early pace. He never would.
Romain Grosjean was on a one stop strategy. He started on medium tires and would not pit until the 34th of 51 laps. Two laps later Grosjean retired from the race with brake issues.
So again Haas has failed to score any points and are holding at 8 points total. Leading Toro Rosso with 4 points and Williams with 0.
Haas has risen… they are the cream of the crap!
Next stop…. Spain!
