25 - Monaco Grand Prix

Post no. 25 here:
Sebastian Vettel wins again!

The Monaco Grand Prix was held last weekend, and Sebastian Vettel wins again! This is his 3rd consecutive race win and his 5th win from the last 6 races, and does not look like slowing down. This was Vettel's 1st win at Monaco and it will be one to remember.


 "I was 15 seconds behind Jenson Button and the victory seemed far away, but this is a crazy place" said the German. Vettel was very lucky in the race win, his tyres were shot but he managed to survive an extra 15 laps to keep up the pace. Then a crash occurred meaning a restart, which meant he could change his tyres and finish the last 5 laps equal with the leader. Where he managed to cruise home to victory in the last lap, some might say luck but in sport you make your own luck.

1st place - Sebastian Vettel
2nd - Fernando Alonso 
3rd - Jensen Button 
4th - Mark Webber


This extends Vettel's championship point lead, and is looking to take out the title. This basically ends all hope for Australian's Mark Webber to win the championship but hopefully he can take out a podium placing.
