Magny-Cours French F1 GP
Apparently the last race at this french circuit! Talks of a French GP in Paris, that could be quite cool! The two Ferrari's made a good start, i have to say i was expecting a little more from Hamilton at the start but there we go. Alonso made a good start gaining 3 places straight away but the speed of Heidfelds BMW was impressive! What was more impressive was the manoeuvre that Alonso pulled of to get past Heidfeld! Shame he lost it again later on during the pit stops. Both Mclarens came in early for their pitstop, i wonder if that was planned of if they altered the strategy based on the start of the race! The 3 stop strategy didn't really work for Hamilton though. The changes that the Ferrari team have made to their cars are impressive, it has given Massa that extra that he needed as he has been driving well all season but it was Raikkonen who has really gained from this progress by Ferrari who hasn't had the best season goes and wins the race! Fantastic bit of driving after Hamilton's 2nd Pit Stop as he came out of the Pit Lane and raced for position against Kubica! And then he goes and sets a fastest lap straight from the pits! Credit to Kubica, he comes 4th in his frist race back after that terrifying crash a couple of races ago. It was good to see another british driver Button in the Honda in the points and finishing the race! So it wasn't Mclaren's day today and it looks like the Ferrari's are back and ready to challenge for the title, so Mclaren have got to pull their finger out if Hamilton is to continue this exciting first season in F1! Standings for French GP 2007: Well that is it for the French GP, next week July 8th we have the British GP at Silverstone! Time for Hamilton to shine on home soil!!
