On May 6th Vettel had an car accident when doing the first training of free practice. Fortunately, no one was seriously hurt in the crash but Vettel's car was broken badly. It made him can not join the second training session. How did the accident happen? I think the rain is the main factor to cause the accident. Driving in the rain is dangerous, let alone in such a high speed.
Though Vettel didn't do well in free practice, he still won the pole position in qualifying on Saturday. Of course, he also won the champion of Turkish Grand Prix. Comparing to the last game in China, this game wasn't that exciting, because it's almost a Vettel's solo show. By the way, I was really surprised at the Red Bull's repair efficiency.

KERS
KERS is the acronym of "Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems". Its a kind of system that can recover the kinetic energy when drivers brake and store it in a reservoir. The drivers can decide when to use the energy to accelerate.
In 2009 KERS was first used in F1, but it was quite contradictory that KERS was abandoned by the F1 teams in 2010. According to the information I received, the reason why they decided to abandon the systems was that some teams exploit regulatory loopholes and made the F1 games become less exciting than before.
This year KERS return to F1. The technique of KERS is more mature and the rules are also modified. In my opion, the games is really more excited after using the systems this year!
