Report
Practice
David Coulthard's Red Bull suspension was shattered on the curb of turn 12; hence the FIA forced the team to clarify their car design for safety reasons. David Marshall Coulthard, often called DC, (born 27 March 1971 in Twynholm, Kirkcudbrightshire) is a British Formula One racing driver
Qualifying
Session 1
There were very few surprises in this session, with both the Force Indias and both the Super Aguris failing to progress. Force India F1 is a Formula One Motor racing team The team was formed in October 2007, when a consortium led by Vijay Mallya and Michiel Sébastien Bourdais again failed to progress through this first session, whilst Kazuki Nakajima who had already been given a 10-place penalty for this race, also failed to progress through to Q2. Sébastien Bourdais (born February 28, 1979 in Le Mans) is a French Formula One race car driver is a Formula One driver from Japan for the Williams - Toyota team The weather was highly unpredictable, Renault thought that rain would arrive after seven minutes, the official source stated rain would arrive within 20 minutes of the start. 1970s and 1980s 1977 Renault first involvement in Formula One was made by the Renault Sport subsidiary In the end, no rain arrived. Notably, less than 1 second separated 1st from 16th.
Session 2
A few spots of rain greeted the start of this session, but it was otherwise dry. Both Hondas failed to progress, as did Coulthard, Nelson Piquet Jr., Sebastian Vettel and Nico Rosberg. Honda Racing F1 Team is a Formula One team run by Japanese car manufacturer Honda. Nelson Ângelo Tamsma Piquet Souto Maior (born July 25 1985 in Heidelberg, Germany) also known as Nelson Piquet Junior or Nelsinho Sebastian Vettel (born July 3 1987 in Heppenheim) is a German race car driver Nico Rosberg (born June 27, 1985) is a Racing driver for the Williams Formula One team Lewis Hamilton and Felipe Massa produced poor first runs, so were forced to use a second set of tyres to ensure their qualification. Lewis Carl Davidson Hamilton (born Stevenage, 7 January 1985 Felipe Massa (born in São Paulo April 25, 1981) is a Brazilian Formula One racing driver currently employed by the Ferrari
Session 3
Again, the rain did not arrive during this session. Massa produced a stunning lap to take the pole by 0. 482 seconds ahead of his team-mate. The McLarens took row two, Heikki Kovalainen coming ahead of Hamilton, whose final lap fractionally beat that of Robert Kubica. Heikki Johannes Kovalainen (born October 19, 1981 in Suomussalmi, Finland) is a racing driver. Robert Kubica ( /'rɔbɛrt ku'bitsa/ ("koo-bit-sa" born December 7, 1984 in Kraków, Poland) is the first Polish Kubica was also narrowly beaten by Jarno Trulli. Jarno Trulli (born July 13[[ 974]] age) is an Italian Formula One Auto racing driver currently driving for the Toyota team At the very end of the session, Kovalainen and Hamilton (as well as some other cars), slowed down in an attempt to save fuel. The stewards ruled that this impeded the progress of Nick Heidfeld and Fernando Alonso, thus the two McLaren drivers were demoted five places down the grid. Nick Lars Heidfeld, frequently referred to as Quick Nick, (born May 10 1977 in Mönchengladbach, West Germany) is a German Fernando Alonso Díaz (born July 29, 1981 in Oviedo, Spain) is a Spanish Formula One racing driver and a two-time
Race
At the start Massa came across the track to prevent Kimi Räikkönen from overtaking him. Kimi-Matias Räikkönen (ˈkimi ˈmɑtiɑs ˈræikkønen born October 17, 1979 in Espoo) is a Finnish Formula One race car driver currently Hamilton was able to move up to fifth and Mark Webber up to fourth. Early career Mark Webber was born in Queanbeyan, New South Wales, son of Alan the local Motorcycle dealer Also on the first lap, Bourdais spun out of the race and Rosberg crashed into Timo Glock's Toyota, destroying his own front wing in the process. Timo Glock (born March 18, 1982 in Lindenfels, Germany) is a Motor racing driver
On lap four Alonso and Heidfeld overtook Coulthard for ninth and eighth respectively. Adrian Sutil was forced to retire two laps later when he ran off the track and onto the grass, with hydraulic problems. Adrian Sutil (pronounced su'til}} born January 11, 1983 in Starnberg) is a German Formula One Racing driver.
By lap nine Hamilton was within two seconds of Webber and the Ferraris of Massa and Räikkönen had opened up a lead on the rest of the field. Scuderia Ferrari is the name for the Gestione Sportiva the division of the Ferrari automobile company concerned with racing Both set new fastest lap times over the next four laps. Webber pitted on lap 16, Massa on lap 17 and Räikkönen on lap 18, coming out ahead of Massa. Hamilton pitted on lap 19 and the team had a problem getting his front right tyre off, forcing him to stop for almost 20 seconds. This meant he came out behind Webber in 11th.
Räikkönen took the lead for the first time when Kubica pitted on lap 21. He would open up a lead of almost over four seconds in the next six laps. Hamilton was up to seventh by lap 26 but was still unable to overtake Webber. Hamilton was within half a second of him by lap 29 but this forced him to brake harder and lose time to the rest of the field.
Massa spun out of the race on lap 31 getting trapped in the gravel. This gave Räikkönen a lead of over 20 seconds from the next driver Kubica. Hamilton finally overtook Webber on lap 40 when he pitted. Vettel's engine failed one lap later and he was forced to retire. Hamilton would stay ahead of Webber after his second pit stop on lap 44. He was now six seconds behind Trulli in fourth and began to close that margin in the closing laps.
Alonso in eighth now began closing in on Webber. Hamilton was within 2 seconds of Trulli with 2 laps to go but was unable to pass him before the end of the race. Räikkönen won the race by over 20 seconds from Kubica who had his best ever finish in second, Kovalainen came third. [1]
