Ferrari favoured in Valencia?
August 24th, 2008
Despite the praise from some quarters for Hermann Tilke’s track design and the overtaking opportunities afforded by it, today’s inaugural F1 GP in Valencia was not one of the most exciting races we’ve seen. A great lap on Saturday put Felipe Massa on pole and a flawless ‘lights to flag’ drive today saw him take a comfortable victory, which even the flying Lewis Hamilton was unable to threaten.
As far as racing is concerned, there was very little action anywhere in the field, with strategy and mistakes being responsible for most of the small amount of excitement.
