When I started this little project, I never thought that it would actually last this long or that I would have so much fun running the site. The site has gotten many face-lifts since the launch, but one has never really changed, the news quality that you have been enjoying every day for a whole year. Well there were instances when nothing was updated for a couple of days, but overall, it was delivered on time every workday.

Thanks everyone for continuing to come back and supporting the site.

F1 Magny-Cours: Lewis Hamilton third, Fernando Alonso seventh

This weekend didn’t really work out for the Mclaren Team, as they finished the race in 3rd and 7th place. Hamilton fell back to third place right at the start, being overtaken by Raikkonen. Alonso started out from the 10th, but he did manage to advance 3 place. Overall it was disappointing for the Mclaren team, for whatever reason, they were not able to repeat the success that they had in Canada and the US.

One of the exiting parts of the race was the cat fight between Alonso and Heidfeld, where Alson won the battle, but later Heidfeld still won the war by finishing on 5th place. The other interesting scene was when the driver of the Spyker, Christijan Albers, drove out of the pit with half of the refueling station and put his whole team in danger.

Supreme safety thanks to F1-style carbon-fibre monocoque

Carbon fibre is a life-saving material. This was demonstrated most recently in dramatic fashion at the Canadian Grand Prix in Montreal on June 10 of this year, when one of the drivers suffered a horrific accident. Despite hurtling into a solid concrete wall at over 250 km/h, the driver survived the crash in his race car made from carbon-fibre composites virtually unscathed. Mercedes-Benz harnesses the safety benefits offered by carbon-fibre materials for the body of the new SLR McLaren Roadster, and builds its open-top super-sports car almost entirely from this exotic material as standard. Consequently, the new high-performance roadster not only serves up an exclusive open-air feast for the senses, it also offers a standard of safety that is unparalleled in this segment.
