Now Jenson I like as a person, and he is a great driver, but I am not convinced he is an exceptional 'racer'.
Too well balanced to be world champion in my book.

Don't ask me how, but I've seen a post race press release.
It says:
"We, the FIA, totally support the course marshalls in their decision to add 1 minute to the time of Lewis Hamilton for his offence of <insert inocuous incident here> on lap <insert lap number where Lewis and Kimi were on the same bend>.
Therfore the seasonally Ferrari adjusted race result is, first Raikonen, second Massa, third <insert name of driver with no chance of upsetting the status quo"
You read it here first folks!

Certainly they are adored in others (Ryder & the Cock, for example)
I'm not sure if I'm looking forward to the race this weekend or not to be fair - it all feels a bit weird!
I'll obviously watch it but I'm starting to dislike the Red cars which I've never done before - it's all been driver support in the past rather than team support / dislike.
Also, if you get a chance, have a read of this weeks Autosport. The write up is really interesting and there was lost of talk about race.........ing! Doh!

I'll be at Silverstone watching LMS:-
"Our day will start off at 9.30am with coffee in our hospitality suite overlooking the start finish straight and then you'll enjoy an access all areas pit lane walk prior to the start of the race at 10am, before watching the start of the race from the balcony of the hospitality suite.
During the race, you'll be free to venture where you like, we'll be visiting the pits several times throughout the race to watch pit stops with driver, tyre changes and refuelling and also going to various spots around the circuit. We'll have a light lunch served in the hospitality suite along with snacks and drinks throughout the afternoon until the race finishes at 17.20"
