5 talking points of the Japanese GP

The curious case of Romain Grosjean

Romain Gorsjean continued his brilliant run with a podium finish at the Japanese GP

From being called a first lap nutcase last year to almost winning the Japanese Grand Prix in 2013, the young Frenchman seems to have finally got his act together. While he was the reason for the pile up at Suzuka at the very first corner last time around, he was in the news for all the good reasons this time overtaking the Red- Bulls heading into the same corner.

Having lead for quite a few laps of the race it looked as if he would finally take his maiden win in Formula One but Lotus were unable to keep the strategically brilliant Red-Bull’s at bay. Despite missing out on the win Grosjean managed to stay ahead of his flamboyant teammate and take the final spot at the podium for the second time in a row.
