We'vwe been impressed with Perez from the start of his F1 career. In his first ever race he was the only driver to only pit once whilst most otherss pitted three times. Now he's got a competitive car under him he's showing the big boys what he can do. Definitely one to watch in the future.

Another spectacular race and well done to Alonso, Raikonen and Schumacher. Maldonardo blots his copy book yet again though. Come on JB, pull yer finger out lad!

Wasn't it though? Time for Eddie Jordan to eat humble pie I think . Now watching touring cars and supporting demolition derbies on ITV4+1

A great race indeed, & not the end result that was expected

I do like the way Kimi doesn,t get all excited,,,even after finishing 2nd he was sooooo calm & almost disapointed , wonder what it takes to make him look happy

Its about time Maldonado (sp) was told to behave, I wonder how much money he has cost OTHER teams let alone his own

Roll on Silverstone , can,t wait .

Yeah a great day of motorsport on the box. My mate bettered it though getting as VIP trip to Croft for the touring cars including a pit lane pass.

In about two hours we roll for Goodwood and the Festival of Speed, been looking forward to this weekend since this time last year .

Rain soaked qually for silverstone puts Alonso on pole. I think if the rain holds off it will be a real hum dinger. Just have to be impressed with Kimi in his comeback season.

Its about time Jenson got his finger out and scored some serious points but from 18th on the grid he's got a big challenge on. I lost interest in Hamilton last week at the Festival of Speed, he turned up Saturday morning, did one run up the hill with a few burnouts/donuts, signed a few autographs then buggered off " a very busy schedule" was the excuse given. How did all the other F1 names manage to get their callendars clear for it then? JB was there Sat and Sun and signing autographs down by the start line, Vettel and Webber were both there along with Chandhok, Bruno Senna and Nick Heidfeld (course record holder at 41.6 secs for the 1.16 mile hillclimb).

FMB that was a good race. The mercedes engined cars are just not cutting it with the renault and ferrari powered cars. The power advantage that was present at the start of the season has gone.Sad for lewis and jenson but its not the car its just the raw pace thats not there. Mind things change just as quickly and another race could be another story.
