Yup, Alonso won again but it was horrible for the Brits, Button spinning on lap 10 and Coulthard finishing a dismal 11th. But while the F1 Brits were having a tough time, the GP2 Brits were having a good time.
Silverstone Top 8
1: Alonso (Breaks the pole-to-flag curse)
2: M.Schumacher (Unable to catch Fernando)
3: Raikkonen (Mystified by Schumey jumping him in the pit stops)
4: Fisichella (Nibbled at Kimis heels but couldnt get by)
5: Massa (Dropped back)
6: Montoya (Good effort despite damage from lap 1)
7: Heidfeld (Slow 1st pitstop loses some points)
8: Villeneuve (Holds off Rosberg for final point)

Next GP2 Meeting: French GP (July 15-16th, weekend of my birthday)
But with the perfomance of the F1 Brits struggling at the moment, will Hamilton, Carroll or Conway step up to F1 and definately become a F1 champ of the future? Watch this space.
Great job by BMW to get both cars in the points.
Has anyone got the same opinion as me that Alonsos dominence is starting to get a bit boring?
I dunno but Brundle pointed out that one mistake from Alonso and its all back on Besides it was boring when Schuey dominated for 5 seasons.
Its that time of year in F1, yup, the silly season deciding where F1 drivers race with next year. It was opened early after Christmas last year by Alonsos shock move to McLaren. Heres the latest seats, Im not gonna put in any provisional names cause sometimes I can be wrong.
2007 Drivers Seats
Renault: Giancarlo Fisichella
McLaren: Fernando Alonso
Ferrari:
Toyota: Ralf Schumacher
Williams: Nico Rosberg (long term)
Honda: Jenson Button & Rubens Barrichello (Button in long term, Barrichello year-by-year basis)
Red Bull:
BMW: Nick Heidfeld
Midland:
Toro Rosso:
Super Aguri:
Pretty sure DC will stay with Red Bull next year.
I agree. It was equally boring when Schumi was winning all the time.
Cant remember the programe as it was part of C5s motor morning (wed 1.00am - 6.am aprox).
But there was a race where lots of cars came off the track!!
Due to one putting oil down on the turn into a corner. I know F1 drivers try to get off line if they get a leak, but what if something like that happened at a track like Monaco or Montreal, and they couldnt get out of the way for some reason. Would be interesting!!
not seen that in f1 for a while, last time i saw multiple slide off was brazil a year or two ago, but that was rain not oil.
maybe it was gp2 you were waching?
Na, GP2 is shown either live on Eurosport or a week later on ITV1
