Brundle was impressed by 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Sergio Perez as he showed sign𒁏s ofꩵ ‘rejuvenation’ with some daring overtakes.

“Sergio Perez had already shown his rejuvenated talents on a number of occasions with some deft out-braking manoeuvres while recovering from a poor-ish grid slot, and then homed in on Fernando Alonso for the final podium spot. I thoroughly enjoyed watcﷺhing this battle of high-speed tactics,” he added.

“Alonso ไwas using and placing his car well to frustrate Perez behind him, in what looked like a much faste෴r car. Their tyre lives were identical and it was a straight fight to the flag. 

“The r💛acing would be hard, the defensive moves dramatic and bordering on late, but always leaving racing room, for which they would both appl𒈔aud each other post-race.”
