Ferrari taking positions 1 and 2. Massa winning. Kimi second. And a great fourth place by Kovalainen.

Wink Re: F1 season 2008

I did not like the race....under such circumstances it isn´t always your driving skills that show if you can drive in rain or not. No points for Ferrari making a horrible mistake with weather tactics! Anyway great victory for Hamilton and congrats for that! Massa was definitely the king of spins, I reckon he did some eight or nine spins. Not so much a fan of Kimi as with Heikki this season but I thought Heikki would have deserved more.

And Kimi showing who´s the boss here. Don´t stand on my equipment!

YouTube - Raikkonen rude with a photographer

If Senna had done this in his time it would have been considered normal behaviour....

We went to Silverstone on Sunday to watch the race.
My wife and I arrived there at 7am and set up our seats on the banking at Club Corner.
It only took an hour from our house to the carpark and hour and twenty minutes to go back home.
No trouble with traffic at all .
We then got rained on until the sun came out about 2.30pm.
It was our first Grand Prix, even though we've been fans for 11 years we haven't had the spare money to be able to go, a shame that it won't be at Silverstone for much longer.
I'll post a few photos and images when I've uploaded them to Photobucket.
I was really pleased that Heikki wa son Pole, I think I was the only British fan to give Lewis the "V" sign when he went past Heikki.

A bit miserable under the brolly.


Happy the sun came out and we've just been to the GP Party.
Saw lots of drivers being interviewed.
