European Grand Prix produced red sox jersey a brilliant drive to victory from Red Bull's
Sebastian Vettel in Valencia. The German controlled the race at will after a hairy first couple of corners and it was a pivotal win. The German can taste a potential
world championship again - "We're back on track," in his words. Vettel delivered a slow and strategic formation lap, and then got off to a perfect start.They touched,
Vettel was fortunate not to spin, and Hamilton damaged his front wing, which he would be lucky enough to change 'free of charge' under the safety car. If Vettel had
made a mistake or had a gremlin in the car then his championship chances would have been under pressure - this was his first win since Grand Prix in April, despite
Red Bull's performance superiority. He chose to pass and this allowed him to pit to collect his mandatory second set of tyres and a new nose and front wing is racing
Virgin and Hispania, with an envious eye on Toro Rosso and Sauber; there is no point him losing time or crashing out of the race defending hard in a straight line
against Webber. Webber misread the Lotus's moves across the track as letting him through. Nonetheless he allowed himself to get way too close under the rear wing to
maximise the slipstream and was simply not prepared for Kovalainen to lift or brake 80 metres before Webber would normally hit the anchors.It was so reminiscent of my
crash in Melbourne in 1996. In that situation, you just feel like you're in suspended animation and slow motion, you have all the time in the world cheap jerseys to think about things and wonder what's going to happen next. Webber had two aspects to that.
The first was, having taken to the air, how would the car land - and luckily it hasn't appeared to hurt his spine. He then faced the scariest thing - a passenger ride
in a high-speed sled towards the inevitable second impact.It was so reminiscent of my crash in Melbourne in 1996. In that situation, you just feel like you're in

no points. It was the turning point for the race as the safety car was inevitably deployed to clear away the trail of debris.That's when the irresistible force met the
immoveable object. Heikki Kovalainen took up the Lotus position at 190mph and Webber's Red Bull definitely had wings as it headed skywards, miraculously not collecting
any bridges or marshals en route to a second heavy impact with the barriers. Kovalainen is entitled to defend his position but frankly there was no point. Webber had a
race-winning car and was clearly going to before the end of the lap. The rules are complex and Hamilton was managing warning beeps and messages in his ear while
managing his speed and trying to second guess where exactly giubbotti the safety car was.
