Behind the scenes at the Belgian GP - BBC Sport
Google News &bull Sep 2, 2010
After the race, analysis started to focus on the behaviour of Vettel's front wing, on how much it flexed as it moved out of Button's slipstream and whether, when both ends of the wing caught the air, the forces upset the car's stability enough to swing the nose to the right and into the McLaren's sidepod. The car was clearly uncontrollable at that moment, and reminded me of Vettel's first response after he hit team-mate Mark Webber in Turkey, when he went over a bump on the run down to Turn 12 and, in his words, "lost the car". Indeed,… Full Story »

Hamilton produces 'perfect' display - BBC Sport (blog)
Google News &bull Aug 29, 2010
Lewis Hamilton produced a drive worthy of the greatest race track in the world to win the Belgian Grand Prix and reclaim the championship lead just one race after losing it. The spectacular Spa-Francorchamps circuit in the Ardennes mountains tests Formula 1 drivers to the limit, and never more so than in the sort of changeable conditions in which Sunday's race took place. Two of Hamilton's title rivals, Fernando Alonso and Sebastian Vettel, failed the examination. Hamilton, by contrast, was virtually flawless all weekend and this win will surely come to be ranked among his very best. In order to… Full Story »

The rainstorms sweeping across Formula 1's most majestic circuit, the breath-taking Spa, make the sunshine at the last race in Hungary seem a distant memory. But however much Red Bull's rivals, most notably McLaren, tried to switch off during the sport's summer break, the performance advantage rolled out in Budapest by Adrian Newey's RB6 flying machine haunted their holiday down-time. Without doubt, the longest faces can currently be found in the McLaren garage. The team's renowned resilience and resourcefulness look like being tested to the full. Publicly, team officials dismiss the idea that the next two… Full Story »
