168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Valtteri Bottas says he’s “not done yet” with F1 after a disappointing exit from Sauber at the F1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix.

Bottas was forced to retire from the race at the Yas Marina Circuit following contact with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kevin Magnussen.

The Finn had qualified in 𝓡the top 10, but his race fell apart on the opening lap.

He picked up a 10-second time penalty for colliding with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Sergio Perez at Turn 6 and then crashed into the side of Magnussen’s H🌠aas.

Abu Dh🍰abi brings an end to a poor final season for Bottas, who didn’t score a point in any of the 24 races.

Bottas will sit on the sidelines next year after Sauber opted to replace him with F2 champion Gabriel Bort꧂oleto.

Reflecting on the race at Y🎐as Marina, Bottas said: “Definitely not the ideal finish but these things happen, it’s ra🐬cing.

“Not♏ the first time, everything 🐈just went wrong since Lap 1. The incident, then I got a penalty for it, then I was at the back out of position and later on, got together with Kevin [Magnussen]. It was my bad, I was defending with old tyres and I tried to brake as late as I could but I just couldn’t stop the car.”

He added: “This is not the way I want to finish, which is why༺ I’m𒅌 not done yet.”

What’s next for Bottas?

According to reports, Bottas is set to return to Mercedes as their third d💞ri🔴ver next year.

He will support 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:George Russell and Kimi Antonelli, and step in for either ಞof them as a race driver if necessary.

The bad news for Bottas is that if he races again in F1, he will have to serve a five-pla✅ce grid penalty after the stewards penalised him fꦓor colliding with Magnussen.

Bot🍎tas still remains lightning fast, as demonstrated by his Q3 appearance 𒐪in Abu Dhabi.

He also out-qualified 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Zhou Guanyu 21-3 across the 2024 campaign.

Bottas wan༺ts to return to F1 -and perhaps🌳 the Cadillac-GM entry will give him that chance.

But if it’s the end for Bottas, he’s had a 𝓀great career, winniꦰng 10 races and over 60 podium finishes.
