Sightings from Silverstone!!


The qualifying was an awesome tribute to speed. Heikki scorched the tracks and Mclaren looked truly at home on their home track!!

Race day dawned with a shadow of rain. Hamilton was a class of his own. With fresh intermediate tires after the first pit stop, there seemed to be nothing to stop him. Ferrari made the tactical error of not changing their set of tires and this mistake proved to be their undoing!!

The silver lining for the dark clouds at Silverstone was the way Mclaren planned their race strategy. It was an amazing home race for Mclaren and the race for the top seat seems to be more scorching than the race itself!!

Ya, the race for the top seat seems to be getting hotter and hotter. But I still think Kimi would pull it off by the end of the season :)
