Like the Renault pic the best, I think it must be the shooting angle that makes it. Did you get wet in the small erm... shower!!

Shower? what shower was that I seem to recall torential rain, strong winds, and having to shelter next to a beer stall ;) 10 minutes later it was beautiful sunshine and within 30 mins we were dry.

Well it certainly made for an interesting race, glad you dried off(y)
 
Looks like you had a pretty good place to shoot from there Rob (y) Better than you'd ever get at Silverstone on race day! Some good shots too, esp like Kovaleinen's Renault (y)

All those shots look to be a nice sunny day though :shrug: Didn't get to see the race as I was on hols but the story I heard was that it was torrential rain with cars spinning off everywhere? So what happenend? What's the story with Hamilton's qualifying crash and The Alonso / Massa row?
 
Thanks all for your comments, motorsport is never easy so always pleasing to have a couple of good 'uns,

The wheel gun was faulty and so didn't apply enough pressure to the wheel nuts and therefore it worked itself loose and damaged the hub assembly. He was just a passenger in a very fast moving car, one thing I was disappointed in was the German Ferrari fans started cheering when he crashed,

Not quite sure about Massa and Alonso, it looked like Alonso may have rubbed the side of Massa's car as they were side by side, but thats a racing incident.
 
first of Raikonnen's my favourite there (y)
