What an extraordinary drive by Lewis Hamilton at today’s British Grand Prix! Horribly wet conditions, with great puddles of water on the track, and a few dry spells to tempt people into risky tyre changes. Everybody seemed to be spinning, or sliding off the track, except for Lewis Hamilton in his McLaren, and he wound up winning by over a minute, lapping everyone up to third place. Unquestionably the best drive of his short career.
The Driver’s Championship is in a fascinating state: half-way through the season, we have a three-way tie at the top, with Hamilton, Räikkönen and Massa all on 48 points. Nine races down, nine to go. This is going to be fun.
