BMW wins the first victory in Formula 1

Waiting for this victory. Perhaps not expected so soon, but this year waited exactly. Concern BMW long way to this success as an independent team, gradually building up its strength. First there were podiums, then the first pole position, but today something happened that should happen this year. Polish driver Robert Kubica today, the Canadian Grand Prix 2008, first victory in her career, also became a debut victory for the German team BMW Sauber (BMW Sauber). Moreover, today the same thing happened the first take for the team BMW, as an experienced teammate Nick Heidfeld Pole, have done a tremendous job for the formation of the team-leader, finished second. The race was very interesting. Starting from the beginning of the week-ENDA, when only lazy did not remember the terrible accident Kubica at this track a year ago, when the car of BMW were just rubble, and yet Robert was not only alive, but after two races once again got behind the wheel car . Robert Kubica in qualifying was very close to victory in qualifying, but Lewis Hamilton in his latest attempt to take away the pole by a Polish pilot. Start the race went smoothly, and Lewis Hamilton broke away fairly easily up to 20 - the circle, when the German Adrian Sutil of Force India, flashed two weeks ago at the Monaco Grand Prix, crashed his car into a very wrong place. After thinking for some time, the administration decided to release the race on the track safety car (safety car), which in many ways and decided the fate of the race. The simultaneous pit stop during the safety car'a decided to drop once the four leaders of the Grand Prix - Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Raikkonen, Robert Kubica and Nico Rosberg. After a very nervous of the mechanics Kubica and Raikkonen drove up to the departure of the boxes at a time, like at a traffic light was still burning red light. Slightly latecomer with refueling Hamilton rammed the rear wing Raikkonen, and received another blow from behind Rosberg, which led to a descent of two of the three main contenders for the title this year. Rosberg eventually finished the race, but on a low 10 points. Truly a miracle avoid being hit from behind Robert Kubica, thanks to a grimace of fate, who returned him to duty for last year's accident, left the boxes only 10 m, since nine pilots, marching ahead of him, chose the tactics of one pit stop, and in the mode of the safety car to the pits on changing tires and refueling is not out of town. Led the way at the moment Nick Heidfeld, Rubens Barikello and David Coulthard. Thus, after the withdrawal of the main contenders for victory, the intrigue in the race boiled down to a question about the winner. Through various tactics one and two pit stops viewers got two groups of likely leaders - Heidfeld, Coulthard and Barikello chose a pit stop, and Kubica, Alonso and Massa have chosen tactics of the two stops. Soon from the six leading drivers have only two - Heidfeld and Kubica. Barikello and Coulthard did not stand the pace of the race - all the same to compete with BMW and Ferrari their cars until you can, Massa does not dolili fuel tanks, because of what he had to once again call in the pits, making the Brazilian fell back to last place, and Alonso, trying to pass Heidfeld and rush in pursuit of Kubica, by the time thanks to a lighter car has passed teammate BMW and published in the leaders, crashed his car. Kubica stepped up his advantage over Heidfeld and after the pit stop, superbly conducted by the German team left the boxes at the 1 position. The race ended with a brilliant double of the BMW team, which did not have after the farcical gathering Hamilton and Raikkonen, the competitors, so the main task for the season - to win at least one victory of the Bavarian team has fulfilled ahead of schedule and with triumph. Kubica became a leader of the championship, and definitely still fight for the title, though the team manager Mario Theissen of BMW and modest, suggesting that the champion of this year it is early to become pilots.
