Formula 1

Must admit I had a little chuckle at Vettel's current situation. Knocked off his perch as top driver by Hamilton, Mercedes giving Redbull a kicking in the points and having Ricardo yapping at his heels. Ahh well, here's to the rest of the season Seb

I thought Vettel drove a good race today, well,,,, in the words of Mark Webber "not bad for a No2 driver"

I was at Silverstone today to see Mark Webber take his first podium for Porsche in the World Endurance Championship. I bet he has a good laugh when he sees the F1 highlights.

20 Years today saw the death of Ayrton Senna and Roland Ratzenberger at imola. itv4 today are showing the fantastic film about ayrton senna, Senna at 22:30 tonight. really recommend you watch it

He lives on, Greatest ever

The Mercedes cars were far too quick for the rest of the field today, or rather the rest were too slow.

They easily took the top two spots but look at the gaps.

Ricciardo in third place was a full second back and Raikkonen in 6th place was almost 2 seconds back. It's not looking too competitive at the moment.

another fantastic performance from lewis hamilton to hold off nico rosberg again,great race,lots of battles,but more importantly,this result now puts lewis to the top of the leaderboard,4 wins in a row,go LEWIS

Yes, well done to Lewis. Make hay before the Red Bulls work out a new cheat to catch up ( Allegedly)

Away from the racing proper, just what is the deal with the Ferrari on-board cameras? The pictures are covered with a hundred black dots. I imagine this is a deliberate attempt to look retro and artistic but it just looks crap. All the other teams can get it right, when did Ferrari get so amateur.

The cameras are all provided by FOM TV (Bernievision) so either Ferrari have 2 faulty cameras or something on the cars is causing interference. My guess is that the cabling is too close to some part of the ERS system.

Ferrari drivers Alonso & Raikkonen along with Ferrari staff sent a message of hope to Michael Schumacher and to commemorate his first Formula One victory at the Spanish Grand Prix in 1996.
