F1 - European Grand Prix

Published by Chris on July 29, 2007 under Television

Last week’s European Grand Prix was… interesting. In the final minutes on the grid just before they all set off on the parade lap “Rain in 3 minutes” popped up at the bottom of the screen. This rain would start to have an effect on the first lap proper.

I’ve never laughed so hard watching a grand prix before. (I think the last rib tickler was a couple of years back when Alonso flipped the bird at Ralf Schumacher while coming backwards out of the tunnel at Monaco).

So sit back, relax, and enjoy the delightful spectacle that is Formula 1. Some things to watch out for:

  • Raikkonen missing the pit entrance
  • Marcus Winklehoff leading the race on his debut after starting from the pits on wet tyres
  • Five cars (including Button and Hamilton) aquaplaning off the track
  • Lewis Hamilton subsequently employing the Scalextric tactic of being upped and replaced on the track for another go
  • The safety car driver putting his foot down to escape the Red Bull car coming flying down the track backwards towards him

Towards the end of the race when Alonso was all over the back of Massa’s car was good too, but its taken a week to get this far and I’m tired now.
