ONE, TWO, THREE TIMES YOU’RE ON ME, AND SUDDENLY, READY, STEADY, GO !! — my formula 1 dr
ᯓ★ the championship lead switches hands again after the 6th race this F1 season! it was at the iconic Monaco street track, where Mercedes driver Djarin won the last 5 years, but his streak ended devastatingly with a DNF and his championship rival, Haas driver Lovelock, taking the win!
after qualifying in P2 with Djarin in P1, it seemed the winner on this tight track was already decided. but a stubborn woman and a cocky man changed that. a bump of tires as Lovelock overtakes sends Djarin into the barriers, leaving the rookie to cruise home in 1st. the reigning champion wasn’t happy, seen talking to his team about “reckless” behaviour. and all only 2 weeks after their heated post-race press conference in Spain!
↑ 1. 🇨🇦 A. Lovelock - Haas • #23 — 127 points
↓ 2. 🇨🇱 D. Djarin - Mercedes • #77 — 104 points
Canada comes next! and Lovelock enters her home race leading the championship. it looked to be a memorable weekend for the rookie after qualifying in P1 on Saturday. however, Djarin still held a grudge from Monaco, believing her hitting him was intentional. so, he decides to return the favour. she takes Monaco from him, he’ll take Canada from her.
he pulls a similar move to hers in Monaco, bumping her at a corner as he goes to overtake. her first DNF this season, and at her home race no less! rightfully upset, Lovelock pushes for a harsh punishment, but without sufficient evidence that he did it on purpose, a 10 second time penalty is all he receives.
as Djarin takes the checkered flag to win his 3rd race this season, Lovelock is seen glaring on from the sidelines.
↑ 1. 🇨🇱 D. Djarin - Mercedes • #77 — 129 points
↓ 2. 🇨🇦 A. Lovelock - Haas • #23 — 127 points
