Hamilton luar biasa di Silverstone

Pembalap McLaren asal Inggris, Lewis hamilton tampil sempurna di depan publiknya sendiri di sricuit Silverstone, Inggris.

Beruntung Ferrari masih menempatkan raikkonen di posisi 4 finish setelah sempat juga mengalami beberapa kali slip. Hamilton unggul lebih dari 1 menit tepatnya 68.5 detik dari pembalap BMW-Sauber Nick Hiedfeld diposisi kedua. Tempat ketiga ditempati pembalap Honda, Rubens Barichello. Raikkonen sendiri menyelesaikan lebih dari satu lap.

Hamilton melakukan start yang brilian, mendominasi balapan hingga akhirnya finis terdepan dengan selisih waktu lebih dari satu menit membuat Lewis Hamilton menyebut suksesnya itu sebagai kemenangan terbaiknya. Hamilton memang tampil memesona sepanjang balapan. Mulai dari start, saat melakukan overtaking, bahkan ketika sempat oversteering, ia tetap tenang, konstan dan stabil. Tak salah bila Lewis menyebut suksesnya di GP Inggris ini merupakan yang terbaik. Apalagi kondisi trek begitu menyulitkan bagi pembalap mengingat lintasan dalam kondisi sangat basah.

Result Free Practice Two GP British: Kovalainen leads

Friday’s second practice at Silverstone saw many leading runners focus on race set-up running. It was Heikki Kovalainen who set the pace for McLaren with the only sub-1m 20s lap of the afternoon, a 1m 19.989s - a time that would have given him fifth place in this morning’s quicker session.

As Felipe Massa settled in his repaired Ferrari F2008, and team mate Kimi Raikkonen worked on long-distance runs, it was Mark Webber who placed his Red Bull RB4 in the runner-up slot with 1m 20.520s, which was just sufficient to prevent Lewis Hamilton making it a McLaren one-two.

The Englishman lapped in 1m 20.543s to head Red Bull’s David Coulthard (1m 20.589s), Williams’ Nico Rosberg (1m 20.748s), Sebastian Vettel (again on strong form for Toro Rosso with 1m 20.805s), Honda’s Jenson Button (1m 20.929s), Massa (1m 20.943s) and Kazuki Nakajima (1m 20.985s). Vettel had one off-course moment at Stowe, which may still have been slippery after Alonso’s morning engine failure, while Nakajima also ran his Williams into the tyres at Vale, before limping back to the pits with suspension damage.

Rubens Barrichello completed the top 10 for Honda with 1m 21.002s, then came BMW Sauber’s Robert Kubica (1m 21.023s), Raikkonen (1m 21.275s), Nick Heidfeld (1m 21.453s) in the second BMW, Toyota’s Timo Glock (1m 21.472s), Alonso (1m 21.511s), Force India’s Giancarlo Fisichella (1m 21.520s), Toro Rosso’s Sebastien Bourdais (1m 21.634s), Renault’s Nelson Piquet (1m 21.642s) and Force India’s Adrian Sutil (1m 21.756s). Fisichella went off at Stowe.

It was not a great session for Toyota; Glock stopped out on the track at Club at one stage with a clutch problem, while Jarno Trulli was left in last place on 1m 22.196s after his TF108’s rear wing parted company with the rest of the car under braking for Stowe and the sudden loss of downforce caused him to pirouette into the wall on the outside. The team had been running a new part on Trulli's car. They immediately reverted to the standard spec on Glock's and will continue with that for the remainder of the weekend.
