F-1 GP du Canada 2013 - At Last... Vettel and Red Bull's First Win in Montreal !








By Leonardo Barroso
First Montreal was rainy all week, and everyone was in expectation of a 100% rain race this Sunday, but the sun appeared with full force.
This race was Vettel's from the start, he drove away since the first lap, and won for the first time in Canada, and was Red Bull's first too.
Kimi Raikkonen made his 24th consecutive race in the TOP 10, matching Schumacher's record. So in the next race ( England ) if he win any point, he'll be the first driver to earn points in consecutive 25 races, but he didn't score enough points, and dropped to 3rd place in the Championship.
Di Resta(17) and Massa(16) did the best racing this year, both starting way back in the grid, but with great overtakes, they managed to finish in 7th and 8th.
I do love Gilles-Villeneuve circuit ! It is fast, has great spot to overtake, a fantastic view, and Montreal at its best.
The sad note was the death of a Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada circuit worker Marshal, while lifting a F-1 car of Esteban Gutiérrez/ Sauber.
