Turkish Grand Prix

Well Lewis and McLaren were delighted after scoring second 1-2 finish in Turkish Grand Prix of 2010 F1 season. The two red bulls led the race upto lap # 34 and from then onwards McLaren came into play and both the McLarens overtook both the redbulls in a single go.
Lewis and button battling out for first position near the end of the race.
Well the 800th grand prix of ferrari in F1 turned out to be a nightmare because both the ferrari went out of the point scoring positions. At the end of the race ferraris were trailing McLarens by over 50 seconds.
Well for red bulls it wasn't less than any nightmare either. The redbulls led the grand prix up till lap # 34, until Vettel (in 2nd position) tried to pass his team-mate (Webber in 1st position) and collided. Picture below is of Vettel's car. Vettel had to retire and on the other hand webber came 3rd behind the McLarens.
A similar incident happened back in 2006 when Juan Pablo Montoya (McLaren) hit the back of Kimi Raikenon (McLaren) in US Grand prix causing both the McLarens to retire. Ultimate result was that Montoya had to make a shocking move to Nascar racing. We are glad not to see such a thing again happening to any of redbull's drivers.
