After the summer break Formula 1 is back and compared to last year Valencia was a far more entertaining race this year!

This was the race Michael Schumaccer possibly would race in but was prevented due to a neck injury, now that would have been great to see! The 7 time world champion racing with the likes of Lewis Hamilton.

So the race … Lewis led from te start with Heikki running in second until the first round of pit stops where Reubens Barrichello got ahead and was around 3.5-4 seconds off Lewis when Lewis pitted the second and final time…it should have been a easy pit but somehow the team were there ready but the tyres were still in the garage! Kinda a big mistake in my opinion!!!!!

Martin Witmarsh after the race said they were off the pace and that is why they didn’t win, but if Hamilton’s pit had gone more smoothly I can’t see why he wouldn’t have won it!

Guess we all make mistakes but I think that someone at Mclaren needs a reminder of how important tyres are to a racing car

Bring on next week … Belgium I think!
