Lewis Hamilton won the German grand prix, in the Hockenheim circuit, after giving a very good race. Formula one is keeping a surprise for the funs, in every race this season. The surprise this Sunday was that young Brazilian Nelson Piquet finished in second place, and took his first podium in formula one. He was even leading the race until Hamilton overtook him a few laps before the end. Felipe Massa finished in third place.

A very good race with many incidents took place in Silverstone today. Lewis Hamilton was the winner of this race as he took his first victory in his country, finishing more than a minute ahead from second Nick Heidfeld. Heidfeld made a surprise by taking the second place but Rubens Barichello left everybody speechless by taking the third place and his first podium with Honda.

Heikki Kovalainen took the frist pole position of his career, in Silverstone, which he hopes to turn into a win in Sunday's race. Surprisingly Mark Webber was in second place, about 5 tenths behind the Finn, with 1:21.554 seconds. A dissapointing performance by Felipe Massa as he came 9th behind Sebastian Vettel and Nelson Piquet Jr, while his teammate Kimi Raikkonen was 3rd. Lewis Hamilton came fourth with Nick Heidfeld and Fernando Alonso filling in the 5th and 6th places respectively. Robert Kubica made it to the Q3 but did not race and made no time there. So he will start his race from 10th place.

The race started with Kimi Raikkonen being on top. Truli had a good start along with Alonso, while Kubica was unlucky during the start of the race as he had the worse start among the top drivers if the grid.

The Finn remained on top until after his first pit stop. During his second part of the race he faced a problem with his Ferrari's exhaust. The exhaust on the right side broke and the hot fumes burned the engine cover on that side. As a result, Kimi started losing ground, in Massa's favor. Massa finally got ahead, while it was not sure if the Finn would go until the end of the race.

Ferrari has dominated the French qualifying session, as they made the 1-2 with Kimi Raikkonen in the first palce with 1:16.449 and Felipe Massa in the Second place with 1:16.490. Lewis Hamilton got the third place but he is penalized with 10 places on Sunday's race. So he is starting his race from 13th place. Heikki Kovalainen took the 6th place but he was also penalized 5 places cause he was accused that he slowed down others after completing his fast lap, in the qualifying session.

Today we saw that the championship is far from decided. Track conditions and driver's mistakes gave a new flavor to the standings.

To begin with we have to mention that many drivers and teams had been complaining about the track conditions this year in Canada. But we, as spectators know that the more the drivers and teams complain about this, the best the show is going to be. And this is exactly what happened. Just like in Monaco two weeks ago, difficult racing conditions helped creating a spectacular race.

The start of the race took place without any great changes. Hamilton turned first, followed by Kubica and Raikkonen. This situation in the top remained for about 20 laps, when the safety car got inside the track, after Sutil with Force India had a gearbox failure and got out of the race, leaving the car within the track.

Everyone went inside the pits to change tyres and refuel. As the drivers were coming out, Kubica and Raikkonen were in front (Hamilton had a longer pit stop thus losing his place). However the red light was still on so Kimi and Kubica stopped at the end of the pit lane side by side waiting for the light to go green. Lewis Hamilton couldn't brake on time and crashed his McLaren on the rear side of Kimi Raikkonen's Ferrari, causing both of them to retire from the race.

Lewis Hamilton made a fantastic final lap, during the qualifying session on Saturday, and stole the pole position fromRobert Kubica, who came 2nd. Saturday's results were not as good as expected, for the Ferrari team, with Kimi Raikkonen coming in 3rd place and Felipe Massa in 6th. Raikkonen was frustrated by Ferrari's bad qualifying session.
