Also with a three stop strategy, Verstappen who came from the back with excellent pace, managed to overtake Ferrari\u00b4s Kimi R\u00e4ikk\u00f6nen on the last corner of the last lap but was penalized for cutting the previous corner gaining the necessary advantage to make the pass finishing 4th.<\/p>\n<p>Alonso and Ricciardo had to retire both after mechanical failures, Bottas had a lot of trouble to make his one stop strategy work and it seemed the team reacted late to aid him and change it to a two stop when he couldn\u00b4t fend off the attack of the fresh rubber cars coming behind him finishing 5th. Force India added valuable points as a team, with Ocon finishing 6th and Perez 8th. Carlos Sainz impressed with his strong performance in a new team, new car, managing 7th position. Felipe Massa held off a strong attack and finished 9th for Williams followed by Toro Rosso\u00b4s Daniil Kvyat.\u00a0 New Zealand\u00b4s Brendon Hartley pushed hard and managed to finish 13th keeping it together as he covered for the new Toro Rosso driver Pierre Gasly<\/p>\n<p>Next race is in one week\u00b4s time, the Mexican Grand Prix.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A very exciting race was witnessed by the huge crowd of F1 followers that attended the Circuit Of The Americas this weekend.\u00a0 Hamilton lost the lead at the start but regained it and never let go again making his one stop strategy work against a competitive Ferrari team that switched Vettel to a two stop [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-676","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-f1"],"blog_post_layout_featured_media_urls":{"thumbnail":"","full":""},"categories_names":{"6":{"name":"F1","link":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/category\/f1\/"}},"tags_names":[],"comments_number":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/676","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=676"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/676\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":679,"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/676\/revisions\/679"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=676"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=676"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wiseracingworld.com\/intro2\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=676"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
