Shame about hamilton but he did well considering he was last at one point.

Webber did well.Like his team said a few more laps and he could of won.

at the end of the day pirelli are doing what they have been asked to do with tyres apart from the failures which needs adressing pirelli could easily design tyres that will do the whole race without issues but f1 asked them not to had to watch the bbc highlights for first time as not at home to watch sky sports and felt they missed far too much compressing it into the timeslot

never found Silverstone that great for spectating, and grandstand seat costs are huge .

can get flights, hotel and general admission tickets for the Spanish gp, for less. and lay in a nice grass bank in the sun, along with a weekend in Barcelona
