The Silverstone Circuit is in England. The type is Race and the length is 5,141 kms, there has 17 turning points. Like many UK historic tracks, Silverstone was built on the site of an old RAF airfield with the original circuit making use the three runways in a triangle formation, so common to World War Tow airfields. The first race at the circuit is reported to have taken place in September 1947 between local resident Maurice Geoghegan and 11 friends who raced on a two-mile ad-hoc circuit.
At 9:00 p.m. (Japan Time) the the formation lap started. The poll position was Sebastian Vettel (Red Bull), the front row was Mark Webber (Red Bull), and the 2nd row was Fernando Alonso (Ferrari). I think that Red Bulls' cars are fastest of others. Last Grand Prix, Red Bull got the poll position and the front row. Nobody know about the secret of the speed without the concerned. I think it is form and the machine's weight, because they strong for a curve. It mean they can control their weight of machine. But they need the technique of drivers, too. The Red Bull is actuary Drink company. Ferrari is sport car company but it is not! I think it is not most importance thing that the sponsor of the car maker. However I want Alonso to win!!
Nico Rosberg (Mercedes) was the 4th row, Vitaly Petrov (Renault) was 14th row, Jaime Alguersari (Toro Rosso) was 16th row, and Nico Hurkenberg (Williams) was 12th row. And I was surprised that there are two Japanese drivers! Yamamoto Sakon was changed Bruno Senna by Force India. And he is 23th row, I want him to drive the whole distance. When the race started, Lewis overtook Sebastian so he became 2nd. After that Sebastian slid off the track! And his real tire went flat. Webber's starting was good, I think, he could keep 1st, but Alonso was not so, he became 5th. In 1st lap, Felipe Massa (Ferrari) was pit to change tire, when the race start, he touched other driver. And 3rd was Robert Kubica (Renault), Nico (Rosberg) and Alonso wanted to overtake him, but it is so difficult for them because overtaking has any risk. They don't want to retire. In 10th lap, Lucas di Grassi (Virgin) was in pit, he had trouble. He was in pit but he cannot run, so he retired. And in 11th lap, Vitantonio Liuzzi (Force India) overtook Adrian Sutil (Force India), in 13th lap, Alonso, Rubens Barrichello (Williams), and Kamui Kobayashi (Sauber) were in pit same time, so the ranking was changed, Kamui was front of Michael Schumacher (Mercedes). He is called a legend, because he has gained chanpionship seven times! Now he is 41 years old but he is look loke same other young drivers. However he is not good condition recently. He has brank for 4 years, I think he readjust now. Mercedes's engine is good but it doesn't suitable sport car. Mercedes's car is very expensive car, and looks cool! I want it! The safety car, which is used in F1 Grand Prix is made by Mercedes. You have watched it once at least. We called it "Benz". I think you want to ride it!!
In 15th lap, Felipe spined and course off, but he drive again. And in 17th lap, Alonso run in 8th behind Robert Kubica (Renault). He was faster than Kubica, so he wanted to overtake him but it was difficult. When he overtake Kubica, the kubica's car approached Alonso's car and he had taken a shortcut! I want Alonso to lose speed but he cannot because the momentary judgment may create a dangerous accident! In 20th lap, Kubica had trouble and he was in pit, and finally he retired. In 26th lap, Pedro de la Rossa (Sauber) was touched by Adrian, Pedro's parts was broken and it was scattered the race road. The safety car was leaded other cars. It was the worst timing for Alonso because he had to drive through. He was 7th but he became 16th. The cause of the penalty was a shortcut of a while ago. The fight of the rookies was watched for 28 and 29th lap. I like to watch the rookies fight because they have different advantages each, such as, Vitaly is an analyst, so his driving very fluent, Jaime was a passionable driver like Alonso so his driving show terrific power occasionally! And Nico (Hulkenberg) is strong driver, he does the driving that is bolder than any one as if a person changed when he puts on a helmet. I love them and I want to cheer! However I love Alonso most!
But the race was not good for him, in 34th lap, Alonso overtook Sebastien Buemi (Toro Rosso), but in 50th lap, when he overtake Vitantonio their tires touched and Alonso's tire was flat, so he had to be in pit in emergency.
Finally Alonso finished with the 14th place, the winner was Mark, 2nd was Lewis, and 3rd was Rosberg!! I think the race was disappointed but it was interesteing, because Alonso couldn't get any points and Vitaly, too. Jaime retired in 44th lap because of braking. Three drivers could not get points. In substitution gor it, Nico (Hulkenberg) could get 1point! And Nico (rosberg) was third!! It was fantastic! I knew he is fast but this was the first time that to step on the winners' platform in this season. He is pleased, and his father will be pleased too.
The Grand Prix is interesting for me but Alonso could not get any point, I was very annoyed about it. In addition, I was convinced that he was very fast in this Grand Prix some other time. McLaren is also good condition, Lewis is point leader now. In Red Bull, a good rival each other. They are said that they are on bad terms since the Turkish Grand Prix. However I don't think so, they are a just rival. By chance they are same team, so as you can see the Red Bull is fastest like McLaren. I think they will get many points than McLaren, but I cheer Alonso! I want him to win! and get poins! And I wish all drivers' safety. Next German Grand Prix was in Hockenheim July 11th.
Alles Gute zum Geburtag, Seb!!
