Official Silverstone British Grand Prix ******* SPOILERS********

Ok sorry I should have worded my post better.

If the there was no rev limit the car in front would reach its stop speed but the car behind would pick up the sleep stream and the extra speed would get tham passed. Yes every car has a rev limit but due to the gearing it might be at say 21,000 but you gear the car so it leave a bit for that reason. The car infront would hit say 20,500 so that gives the person behind a proper chance to slip stream.

Probably not make myself clear again but am sure you know what I mean. We used to have proper slip streaming now we dont, the cars close up yes but thats it. People used to be able to pass at the end of the straight now they can not and thats the only reason I can think of.

Alonso and Lewis were trying to hard to pass but they could do nothing, but this also shows how close the engines are this year.

Well there's no downforce at all in the slipstream anymore so if cars get too close behind another car in a corner they will lose it. That doesn't help at all.

aCTUALLY i think that probably the reason alonso (i am not sure for LEWIS) couldn't overtake Heidfeld was that alonsos car was set up to be fast in the corners and slow on top speed on the long straight.
so, when the Becketts part was coming, alonso was managing to close wright up with Nick, and get slipstreaming , which allowed him to go on the outside for STOWE and in this moment the two cars were on the same line, but because heidfeld (probably) had a set up that allowed him bigger straightline TOP SPEED, alonso couldn't get passed .If Stowe was a slow corner ,like the lefthander after that , probably he would pass heidfeld with better breaking stability.
Although ,i am not sure i am wright , it's just that this happens to me as well when i play GP 4 on monza for example and have small straight line speed , just to be fast in the ascari part and the two lesmos.

or if there is a breakaway. If there is, you can guarantee Silverstone will be in at least one of them.

Her name is Elisabetta Gregoraci, and she's a fashion model.

wikipedia:

"Gregoraci gained notoriety when it came to light that she had offered sexual favours in return for a job as a showgirl for the Italian national public television company RAI. She was fired from RAI and hired by the Italian First Minister Silvio Berlusconi, acting as a hostess in the show Buona Domenica."
