Hamilton Wins First Grand Prix

Post by wolfie »

I’ve just watched Lewis Hamilton win his first Grand Prix in Montreal. What a race that was. I’ve never seen the safety car out so many times in one race.
I’ve heard all the hype about him but this was the first chance I’ve had to watch a race this season, so was interested to see how good he was and he certainly looks like a future champion. He dominated from start to finish.
Looking forward to next week’s race at Indianapolis.
Does anyone know what time that starts.

i so wanted to watch that gp, but it wasnt on here until 3am... and because i didnt get any sleep the night before, there was no way i could stay awake. i tried to watch the motogp but didnt last past the first 5 laps.

in the monaco gp, lewis was held back by his team so that whats-his-face could win. to me, thats not fair and it just goes to show that the best person on the day does not necessarily win a gp...

hopefully the next gp wont be on in the middle of the night...

I didn't watch the race because it wasn't aired here but I saw Kubica in the news. What a crash :o

Hmm, I recall the dutch reporter saying it was his 6th victory... but that might be me then. I guess I wasnt paying attention. Saw the last 10 laps or so...

But yeah, it's nice for a new guy to do so well...a little more competition

Alonso, Räikkönen and Kubica are still having tyre problems because this year they have to use Bridgestones instead of Michelins. That's why they get beaten by their team mates this year.

And that Kubica's crash was freaky. I got flashbacks from Imola '94...
