Acciones del Gran Premio de Austria de Fórmula 1 y NASCAR recorre por primera vez las calles de Chicago [ESP-ENG]

No tengo dudas que en condiciones normales, sino ocurre nada con Max Verstappen, la carrera será para determinar las posiciones del segundo lugar hasta el último lugar, no le veo rival al piloto de Países Bajos, aunque la carrera de mañana será a más vueltas, y muchas cosas pueden pasar. El circuito de Red Bull Ring, situado en Spielberg, Austria, es un escenario donde las distancias se suelen acortar, por las características del circuito, con sus diez curvas, donde algunas son lentas, pero otras son muy rápidas, así que hay que tener un coche muy balanceado en su puesta a punto. Si la lluvia se hace presente el día de mañana, le puede dar un plus extra, desordenar un poco la parrilla, aunque esto ya lo vimos hoy día con la carrera sprint, que por cierto me sigue pareciendo sin sentido, aunque con una leve mejora en lo entretenido, todo gracias a la lluvia que se hizo presente. De resto fue una carrera monótona y se puede repetir mañana. Veremos qué pasa...

This weekend we will have activities in the most important motorsport categories, but this time I am going to talk about the start of the Austrian Formula 1 Grand Prix, where the drivers will try once and for all to defeat the Red Bull team and its drivers, who are the only ones to win this season. Will a driver from another team win this weekend? This is the 9th race of the premier class of motorsport. But also, the NASCAR Cup Series and the Xfinity Series (NASCAR's second national division), will race for the first time in Chicago, in what is expected to be a great race, although this competition has also had several detractors due to the configuration of the track, but I will talk about this later. Who will win in the new Chicago track in NASCAR? This and much more, I will address in this review, I invite you to continue reading until the end, not to miss any detail.


F1 visits the ninth circuit of the season, which would be the tenth race of the season, but remember that the race in Italy, in Emilia Romagna was cancelled due to flooding in the area where the track was located. What is certain is that the top category of world motorsport will contest yet another Grand Prix, visiting the Austrian circuit, which is full of history. This scenario is owned by the RedBull team, so they are at their home Grand Prix. Will they prevail again in the season? The team has started quite well, especially with a Max Verstappen who is still superlative, in front of his fans, who have crowded the circuit this weekend with an orange tide of people in the stands. Vertappen has dominated this circuit, both in practice, qualifying (both for the sprint race and for the main race) and the sprint race. A total domination of the driver from the Netherlands.


From what was seen in the sessions, everything was very close on one lap, but with race pace, the RedBull team is still two steps ahead of its rivals, if not more. Ferrari is a team that is good at this track, they always have a good configuration for their cars, and this has been demonstrated in the disputed sessions, but they are not enough to beat the Dutch driver. The driver who still has a bad streak is Sergio Checo Perez, who was eliminated in Q2 of the qualifying for the main race tomorrow, Sunday, July 2nd. But luckily for the Mexican, in the qualifying for the sprint race he managed a second place, behind his teammate. In the sprint race, he managed to overtake Max at the start, but Max regained the position and did not lose it again until the checkered flag. The podium of the sprint race was formed by Max Verstappen as winner, Sergio Perez in second place and Carlos Sainz in third position, with a Ferrari car that looks a little better in terms of performance.


For this race, all my hopes were on the Aston Martin team, because of the great season they are having, especially the Spaniard Fernando Alonso. But in this race I have seen them a little further back, but the great thing is that Stroll, teammate of the Spaniard, has surpassed him in some of the sessions, and will even start in front for tomorrow's race, after finishing sixth, while Alonso was placed in seventh position. In the sprint race, Stroll finished fourth and Alonso fifth, but it was all because of the way the competition went, where at the beginning there was rain and then the track dried up, but the truth is that between the Aston Martin teammates there was no battle, even the Asturian was seen with more pace at times, but at no time did he try to attack his teammate. Is it possible that there were team orders? It is most likely, the relationship between the two is good, so the team will want to maintain this harmony and above all get a good result, as in the end it ended up happening.


I have no doubt that in normal conditions, if nothing happens with Max Verstappen, the race will be to determine the positions from second place to last place, I see no rival to the driver of the Netherlands, although tomorrow's race will be more laps, and many things can happen. The Red Bull Ring circuit, located in Spielberg, Austria, is a scenario where distances are usually shortened, due to the characteristics of the circuit, with its ten corners, where some are slow, but others are very fast, so you have to have a very balanced car in its set-up. If the rain is present tomorrow, it can give an extra plus, messing up the grid a bit, although we already saw this today with the sprint race, which by the way still seems meaningless to me, although with a slight improvement in the entertaining, all thanks to the rain that was present. Otherwise it was a monotonous race and may be repeated tomorrow. We'll see what happens...

Por otro lado tenemos la carrera de la serie de la copa NASCAR en las calles de Chicago, donde por primera vez se corre en un circuito callejero, al menos desde el tiempo que tengo viendo la categoría. Al ser la primera vez no hay antecedentes o números estadísticas, pero si podemos dar una opinión basado en la experiencia de los pilotos en trazados permanentes, como es el caso de Sonoma donde se corrió más recientemente, la COTA, Road América y Watkins Glen. Alguien que hay que tener presente es que todos los pilotos van a estar en la misma posición, desconocen el escenario más allá de haber usado el simulador. Aquellos que tengan más experiencia en circuito y la picardía necesaria, son los que lograrán destacar y pelear por la victoria de esta carrera.

Chicago Street Course es un circuito urbano, localizado en la ciudad de Chicago, Estados Unidos, en la cual este fin de semana se llevarán a cabo la carrera de la primera y segunda división de NASCAR. El circuito tiene una longitud de 2.140 millas (3.444 kilómetros), en la cual posee tan solo 12 curvas. Como pueden ver en la ilustración compartida, el circuito posee muchas rectar largas y una curvas un poco cerradas que pueden complicar a los pilotos. Tantas rectas y estas curvas han llevado a que este trazado tenga muchos detractores, ya que piensan que la carrera puede ser aburrida. Personalmente no me gusta tampoco el trazado, tiene para mi gusto muchas rectas, parecida a los últimos circuitos que se han agregado a la F1 y que también ha tenido mucha polémica.

Chicago Street Course es un trazado donde se pueden dar muchos incidentes por las curvas que tiene. Esto por lo visto en un video donde se mostraba el circuito y sus curvas. No es una pista como Sonoma, que posee curvas con diferentes elevaciones, donde lo mismo vemos en la COTA, The Glen y Road América, pasadas de una curva a otra con una diferencia en la elevación, que hace que la experiencia de los televidentes y fanáticos que estén en el sitio, disfruten de una gran carrera. Esto tan solo es una opinión personal, pero espero que se dé una grandiosa carrera, con grandes adelantamientos, con buenas batallas por las diferentes posiciones y con pocos incidentes, como estamos acostumbrado en los últimos tiempos en NASCAR. Dar un ganador es complicado, pero AJ Allmendinger lo veo destacar, lo mismo pienso de Martin Truex Jr. Es muy complicado ya que todos los pilotos suelen tener grandes carreras y al ser el primer evento en este escenario, se complica dar una opinión verás, basado en datos, pero por la actualidad le pongo las fichas a estos pilotos.

La única práctica libre y la clasificación ya se desarrollaron el día de hoy sábado. Pero de los resultados de estas, les hablaré más adelante. Lo cierto es que el entrenamientos es de suma importante ya que al ser la primera vez que se corre en el circuito urbano en las calles de Chicago, pues los pilotos deben conocer el trazado, tener sus referencias de donde frenar y cuáles son los sitios ideales para adelantamientos. La carrera es mañana domingo 02 de Julio a las 5:30pm ET de los Estados Unidos. En la misma se deben dar 100 vueltas, divididas en segmentos. La primera etapa a 20 vueltas, la segunda a 25 y la tercera y final a 55 giros, donde finalmente conoceremos el ganador de la carrera. ¿Quién ganará por primera vez en las calles de Chicago? ¿Qué tal será la carrera? Eso lo sabemos mañana domingo, y si no tienes la oportunidad de ver el evento, los invito a estar atentos al resumen compartido la semana que viene.

On the other hand, we have the NASCAR Cup Series race in the streets of Chicago, where for the first time a street circuit will be raced, at least since the time I have been watching the category. As it is the first time there is no history or statistical numbers, but we can give an opinion based on the experience of the drivers in permanent tracks, as is the case of Sonoma where it was raced more recently, COTA, Road America and Watkins Glen. One thing to keep in mind is that all the drivers are going to be in the same position, they are unfamiliar with the scenario beyond having used the simulator. Those who have more experience on the circuit and the necessary skill are the ones who will be able to stand out and fight for the victory in this race.


Chicago Street Course is a street circuit, located in the city of Chicago, United States, where this weekend will be held the race of the first and second NASCAR division. The circuit has a length of 2.140 miles (3.444 kilometers), which has only 12 curves. As you can see in the shared illustration, the circuit has many long straights and a few tight turns that can complicate the drivers. So many straights and these curves have led this track to have many detractors, as they think that the race can be boring. Personally I do not like the track either, it has for my taste many straights, similar to the last circuits that have been added to F1 and that has also had a lot of controversy.


Chicago Street Course is a track where many incidents can occur due to the curves it has. This was seen in a video showing the circuit and its curves. It is not a track like Sonoma, which has curves with different elevations, where we see the same in COTA, The Glen and Road America, passing from one curve to another with a difference in elevation, which makes the experience of viewers and fans who are on site, enjoy a great race. This is just a personal opinion, but I expect a great race, with great overtaking, good battles for positions and few incidents, as we are used to in recent times in NASCAR. To give a winner is complicated, but AJ Allmendinger I see him stand out, the same I think of Martin Truex Jr. It is very complicated because all drivers usually have great races and being the first event in this scenario, it is complicated to give an opinion you will see, based on data, but for the present I put the chips on these drivers.


The only free practice and qualifying took place today, Saturday. But I will tell you more about the results later on. What is certain is that the practice is extremely important since it is the first time that the street circuit is raced in the streets of Chicago, so the drivers must know the layout, have their references of where to brake and what are the ideal places for overtaking. The race is tomorrow, Sunday July 2nd at 5:30pm ET in the United States. There are 100 laps to be completed, divided into segments. The first stage at 20 laps, the second at 25 laps and the third and final at 55 laps, where we will finally know the winner of the race. Who will win for the first time in the streets of Chicago? How will the race be? That we know tomorrow Sunday, and if you don't have the opportunity to watch the event, I invite you to stay tuned for the summary shared next week.
