Master of understatement,Phil Hill 1927-2008

in my book a top bloke because he:

• was the 1961 F1 worldchampion
• won Le Mans and Sebring 3 times each
• drove the delightfull 156 Sharknose Ferrari !

For me the winner of the Europeean Grand Prix was Valencia,what a beautiful job they did.

The race was dull,the pitstops exciting,And the big looser?

Yea the FIA!

Here is Sebastian Vettel pushing a few points home for Toro Rosso

GP Silverstone '08

429

Starting fourth,first Lewis has a look at the left,trying to go through the middle of Webber in front of him and Kovalainen on pole,but he thought better of it...just as well because Raikonen to his left got boxed in behind the two front row starters...

moving to the right he squeezed between the pit wall and Webber ,easily outdraging him towards the first corner...only Kovalainen left...

Kovalainen and Hamilton are now going side by side through the first corner,banging wheels,Heikki has a big moment,it looks like Lewis is ahead but Heikki catches his slide and won't have any of it...

Lewis Hamilton has to be content sitting in the spray of Kovalainen...visibility zero...this is just the start...more excitement will follow...

1992 was the year Mansell and Williams totally dominated the championship,our Nige was the peoples favourite and after his win at Silvestone we saw the biggest and last track invasion of his barmy army,he got mobbed and it was a fantastic scene...
