Some incredible conditions, didn't faze him once. The joy was so clear to see when he finished. And what a joy to see Honda and Rubens come home in 3rd. It was obvious the Ferrari are missing Ross Brawn as he made a great decision to put Rubens on full wets an get him as far up the field as possible. Where as Ferrari made a complete mess of it during the race. It was scary watching so many drivers spin off and come so close to hitting others as they went, also seeing some drivers spin round and face the oncoming traffic in a sea of spray. Crazy stuff, for the penultimate race at Silverstone. Donington has a lot to do Wow what a race and what an awesome drive by Lewis. Some incredible conditions, didn’t faze him once.

I have to admit you have to kind of feel for Hamilton, all British sports stars get incredible pressure put on them to perform mainly because there isn't that much happening. Then the ones that do are give the full weight to carry with Hamilton not being an exception either. It was a cracking race from him from start to finish. He started off very impressive and when he was holding onto his intermediate tires and setting fast lap times whilst everyone else was falling away. What the hell was Massa doing, looked like he was playing the wheel of fortune with his car as the pointer. Every other round he was spinning it around and around, was hilarious, poor guy. The points situation for the leaders is crazy 48 each with Kubica just two points behind all to play for at this halfway stage, gonna be an awesome season. And it was really good to see / hear Ross Brawn again, I always thought he was kewl. What a race, the weather was depressing but it was a bit of a stunner.
