England Well-Placed As Cook Falls Short MONDAY, JULY 28, 2014 SPORTS Ricciardo wins drenched GP BUDAPEST: Australian Daniel Ricciardo charged to a thrilling Hungarian Grand Prix victory yes- terday, his second Formula One win for Red Bull, as a drenched track caused chaos among world championship leaders. Rivalry between Lewis Hamilton and his Mercedes teammate and championship leader Nico Rosberg reached a new peak as Hamilton rebuffed team orders to let Rosberg by into third place. Mercedes said it would hold a team inquiry. But Hamilton’s success trimmed Rosberg’s lead in the title race from 14 points to 11. The German now leads with 202, Hamilton has 191 and Ricciardo is third with 131. Ricciardo, 25, held off Ferrari’s Fernando Alonso to take first place in a race which saw several high-speed crashes after a heavy downpour just before the start changed the course of the race. Ricciardo led twice before he fought back to recapture the lead with three laps remaining, fol- lowing a series of daring passes. Ricciardo’s win was executed with great elan and confirmed him as a driver with the potential to be a future champion. Ricciardo won the Canadian Grand Prix in June and is the only non- Mercedes driver to have won a race this year. “This feels just as good as the first one,” said Ricciardo. “It was a lot of fun in the last few laps, with the passing. I had to go for it.” Hamilton and Rosberg had a fierce battle on the track and via the Mercedes team radio as BUDAPEST: Red Bull Racing’s Australian driver Daniel Ricciardo celebrates on the podium with they tried to make the most of contrasting the trophy after the Hungarian Formula One Grand Prix at the Hungaroring circuit. — AFP strategies in the changeable conditions.
