we should get very worried about the race at Valencia


I don't think so, Valencia always provides a good race, to the contrary of what many people think, Valencia is much better. I know it sounds contraditory once Valencia is made on the local streets, but the track provides much fun and races there in my view have been very decent in the last years. IMO, it should be fixed as official spanish GP. About time to get rid of Barcelone, never saw anything special on that track.

Don't recall seeing this in the race. Knew they were close, but not this close

Vettel. Passing 3 cars in 1 lap and losing no time to the leader, whilst pulling away from your team mate?

Obviously an extremely close 2nd to Lewis. Mentions to Alonso for an epic start, Jenson for a good recovery Heidfeld for points from the back. Oh, and di Resta beat Sutil again. Just saying

Sky had an onboard angle of it. This wasn't shown during the live broadcast.

Shameless plugging time

Constructive criticism always welcome. Single worded profanities less so.

There were 88 overtakes during the race (and there might've been even more, the counting is not finished yet) 8O That is more than in any dry pre-2011 race (and post-1981)! Also goes to show how many were missed by our great director...

Really? I know there was some overtaking, but maybe I was alone in feeling a bit underwhelmed by the amount (maybe it was just the poor directing though...)

I think you'll probably find a lot of the overtaking took place between, say 9th and 16th place as cars differed on strategy. So not irrelevant, but not wholly relevant either.

had to choose between Heidfeld, Vettel and Hamilton. As for gaining positions and not for Kersíng, DRSíng and defending I gave it to Heidfeld

Kobayashi and Heidfeld probably got near a majority of those, coming from the back.

I saw that, I was buffing your ego.

Take a compliment once in a while. :p
