Nice flying lap merve, i am a ferrai fan though i drive a renault in the game since the renault is a tad bit faster, sad thing is it has only 6 gears.

1. Hamilton (he deserves a home victory!)
2. Kimi
3. Massa

Brialliant race.Superb Driving by Massa to get from 22nd to 5th and also Kimi,those flying laps before the 2nd stop were amazing,reminding me of how Michael used to do it.

Well after 1st stop Mclaren fans must have got some hope from Alonso,but it was clearly seen(except by the chap commentators,who were like ga...ga..) that Mclaren short fueled Alonso to get him ahead of Kimi and bunch him up with Hamma,but that didnt work.Hamma was really struggling with the car today.

Awesome race, really shows what superfast inlaps can do!! Was amazed to see Alonso get from 3rd to 1st after the 1st round of pitstops..

Ferrari's were awesome, and was great to see Kimi win and the awesome drive by Massa to get from last to 5th on his normal pit strategy.

RESULTS
1. Raikkonen
2. Alonso
3. Hamilton
4. Kubica
5. Massa

A fantastic British GP. The Ferrari was clearly the faster car today. Was surprised to see Fonso ahead after the first stop but then it struck that he had a short one. Kimi seems back in form . Brilliant drive from him especially the pre second stop session. Superb fightback drive by Massa from last to 5th. And well Hamiltion keeps his record going by being on the podium again.

He was clearly short fueled by Mclaren.his stop was 5.6 secs vs 9.0 secs for Kimi,even though he stopped only 2 laps later.

badri · 8th July 2007, 19:19

Well, nothing that Alonso could do anything about it.Kimi was flying!! Was surprised by the distance these two kept to Hamilton though. Good drive by Massa but it could have been better. His attempts at passing Kubica were mediocre at best..

BUSA · 8th July 2007, 19:43

What a nice race. Short fueling meant he was lighter and was pulling away from Kimi, but i was sure that Kimi was going to pit atleast 5-6 laps later.

nitrous · 8th July 2007, 19:48

MASSA!!!
The dude started at P22 and goes to 5th. He climbed 9 positions in the first 5 laps.Love that spirit to never say DIE!
Kimi's fantastic strategy and driving was awesome.

Bad day for Hamster, i guess.
