Pierre Gasly Makes History as First F1 Driver to Complete a Season Without Any Damage………Read more
Pierre Gasly etched his name into Formula 1 history during the 2024 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix, becoming the first driver to complete an entire season without incurring any damages to his car. The Alpine driver, who finished the season in 10th place with 42 points, displayed remarkable consistency and precision throughout the year.
Gasly ended the season on a high note, securing sixth place in the final race at the Yas Marina Circuit. While he couldn’t crack the top five in the standings, his flawless driving left fans and experts alike in awe.
A Unique Achievement
Gasly’s damage-free season is a rare feat in the high-stakes, high-speed world of Formula 1. Fans took to social media to celebrate his achievement, with many suggesting he deserves a special reward.
One fan wrote, “I feel like there should be a bonus for this…or a very nice watch perhaps.” Another quipped, “Most of us can’t even survive a trip to the grocery parking lot without an incident. This is incredible!”
The achievement is even more remarkable considering the challenges Gasly faced, including a bump from teammate Esteban Ocon in Monaco. Despite this, he managed to maintain an unblemished record, earning praise for his exceptional control and clean racing.
A Season of Two Halves
Gasly’s season started slowly, with just nine points from the first 20 races. However, his fortunes changed at the Brazilian Grand Prix, where both he and Ocon finished on the podium. This breakthrough provided a much-needed boost to Alpine’s season, and Gasly’s late-season surge saw him finish with 42 points.
Reflecting on the season, Gasly expressed his satisfaction. “I’m so happy. It was a very long season. Kept our nose clean the entire season for no damage, so the three targets were completed!” he said, according to Formula1.com.
A Memorable Season Finale
While Gasly’s historic achievement stole the spotlight, other major milestones marked the end of the 2024 F1 season. McLaren clinched the Constructors’ Championship, with Lando Norris winning the final race. Meanwhile, Max Verstappen of Red Bull secured the Drivers’ Championship, capping off another dominant season.
Gasly’s flawless record underscores his exceptional driving skills and dedication, proving that precision and consistency are as valuable as speed in Formula 1. Fans and pundits alike will undoubtedly remember his historic 2024 season for years to come.
