2018 Spanish Grand Prix preview



The Spanish GP is a race where many teams bring new updates for their cars so anything can still happen.


Remember what happened in 2012? Pastor Maldonado was fighting against Fernando Alonso and Kimi Räikkönen and won the race in the end.



Pastor Maldonado won in 2012.

In 2013 Alonso won, Kimi was second and Felipe Massa was third. 
Kimi actually drove better than Alonso in that race but lost his position because of poor pitstop strategy. 



2013's podium finishers.

In 2014 and 2015 it was the Mercedes boys at the top. 2014 was Hamilton's year and 2015 Rosberg's.



2014 was a bit different than the years before.

Two years ago they collided after the start and Red Bull's new driver, Max Verstappen, won in his debut race for the team.




In 2017 Mercedes could have taken a double win again but Valtteri Bottas had a DNF. Hamilton won the race, Vettel was 2nd and Ricciardo was 3rd.


This year I am pretty sure that Mercedes will do great also. This is their track!

Then it's time for my predictions.

Pole position: Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes

The race:

  1. Lewis Hamilton, Mercedes
  2. Valtteri Bottas, Mercedes
  3. Kimi Räikkönen, Ferrari
Fastest lap: Kimi Räikkönen, Ferrari

Surprise: Esteban Ocon, Force India
