Update before the start

There have been some changes on the grid, so I thought I would mention them before the race starts.

Giancarlo Fisichella has lost five places on the grid due to a breach of article 31.7 of the FIA Sporting code. He was judged to have impeded Sakon Yamamoto in the first phase of qualifying.

Then we have the Alonso / Hamilton incident. The Stewards have decided that Alonso unnecessarily impeded Hamilton and so Alonso has a 5 place drop on the grid as well.

Hill back in F1

Well kind of, he will be commentating for the UK’s ITV coverage of the Hungarian GP.

The only downside to him commentating, is that he is not replacing James Allen, so we will still have to put up with the whiney knowledgeless git for the GP.

Oh well. At least we will get some decent input while Brundle is away. Lets hope he can put Allen in his place and shut him up as much as possible.
