Welcome back to San Marino for the first race of the season. With Maikel De Boer taking pole yesterday for Holland and adding a point for his efforts with the revised points system it will be all to see if he can take home the victory as well. Right behind him is the first of the new nations Sweden looking to start their campaign brightly. The forecast did predict a 25% chance of rain but it looks like we are in for a dry race today. So without further ado lets get down to the action.
And its go here in San Marino and a good start by De Boer
He has the lead into the second corner with Silvestre looking to go up the inside of Apenstrom
But Apenstrom has out braked De Boer into the second and goes around the outside
And into the lead!
Further back contact between Marinescu and Kamikaze
Leaving Kamikaze round the outside of turn two
While just inside of him McGregor is squeezing up the inside of Antunis
De Boer is trying to see if he can get up the inside into turn five but not close enough
Silvestre is being more defensive against Maverick though
Same can be said for Kederer just shutting the door on Tafuro
Whereas Vilela ran wide under pressure loosing four places
End of the first lap and a predictable fastest lap for Apenstrom
Here are the standings after that first lap
Antunis is putting Hunsley under all kinds of pressure
While McGregor is on the defensive this time into turn two
Both men stay ahead this time with Girard falling back to the pack behind
Another fastest lap for Apenstrom
Antunis is looking from very deep this time
And outbrakes himself bumping into the back of Hunsley
Sending both men into the gravel!
They return to circuit at the back of the field with Hunsley behind Antunis
Having a look out of frustration but he will not find a way through just yet
Vukcevic cuts accross Jantsher at the very fast turn 11
Weaving down into turn 2 are Marinescu and Edvardson
But Marinescu keeps the position through the chicane
After sustained pressure by Girard McGregor is forced into a mistake at 11
Locking up and running wide leaves him facing backwards
Under yellows Jantsher has got it all wrong in turn 11 as well and careers into McGregor
The Australian seems alright to continue at the back needing a front wing
Jantsher is out though and the first retirement this year
A Problem has struck Vanthoor's car, we are hearing its a loose wheel
Byrne is trying to make some headway on Copeman but he will have to do something special in Variantealta
Vanthoor was unable to make it back to the pits and is our second retirement today
Standings with 5 laps gone
A spin by Vilela at the back of the field
Girard is now onto the back and threatening Silva
Antunis is having another look on Byrne this time and has to be careful after last time
Edvardson is thinking about it behind Kamikze now after he must of passed Marinescu off camera
The gap is creeping out between De Boer and Alpenstrom
Byrne suffers a bit of understeer out of the last corner and runs wide
This gives Antunis an easy pass with the better drive and even Hunsley can get around as well
Girard is really trying to get around Silva quickly he has the noticeably faster car and surely it is only a matter of time before he makes his way around
Edvardson has used the slipstream off Kamikaze to try and make a move on the inside
He has managed to push Kamikaze a little wide
but he has track position and manages to hold onto the position
The very next lap though and Kamikaze has made a hash of it at Villeneuve and runs wide allowing Edvardson through
Girard still all over the back of Silva and senses this is his time to make the move
He is all the way alongside before the braking point
And Silva locks up making it all too easy for Girard in the end
Down the field Vilela makes up for some of his early spins by passing Byrne
Standings before the pit stops
We will be back later tonight for the final two parts of the San Marino Gp. The broadcast team citing Coursework as the reason for the long break

Engineer: Looking good John. You're 4th, the first three seem to have too much pace, concentrate on Germany and Italy behind you.
JM: Affirmed. And you guys concentrate on a quick pit stop!

Welcome back to the second part of the San Marino GP where we are at the stage of the pitstops.
First to pit is De Boer
Followed by Maverick, Kederer and Tafuro
De Boer returns to the circuit in third
Brilley comes in from 7th place
Maverick comes back out in 6th
Tafuro leap frogs Kederer who had a sluggish stop
Brilley returns just ahead of the battle between Antunis and Copeman
Girard and Edvardson both coming into the pits
Girard gets out ahead of Brilley to take that place in the pitstops
While Edvardson comes out right behind Silva
Finally its time for Alpenstrom who is followed in by Silvestre
De Boer is just coming towards the final chicane
But Alpenstrom is long gone comfortably retaining the lead
Silvestre keeps hold of his third place
Edvardson now much closer to Silva is trying up the inside
Bullies his way through
Sending Silva into the gravel
Who nearly collides with Edvardson has he rolls back onto the track
The pitstops have brought McGregor back into the action
As soon as he is back in the action he gets clipped by Antunis who previously caught Hunsley in the same spot
It spins McGregor into the path of Vilela and this time his car is too damaged to continue
Byrne passes the wounded Vilela who will scramble round to the pits
Standings after the pit stops
Vilela returns to the circuit now a lap down and dead last
The gap between De Boer and Alpenstrom has really grown now
Fastest lap for Alpenstrom as well, terrific pace being shown by the swede
Girard is closing the gap to Kederer
Edvardson is already on the back of Brilley
While Tafuro starts to chip away at Maverick's advantage
Edvardson having a look
As Girard is now caught up to Kederer and trying a pass into Villeneuve
Kederer has locked up gifting the position to Girard
And running wide in the process
Edvardson is just waiting for Brilley to make a mistake
And he does just that locking up
Running wide and allowing Edvardson through
Tafuro is now less than a half second away from Maverick
The gap is non existent now
Brilley is falling back to Silva
While Maverick cuts back accross Tafuro
Tafuro double move now has the inside
Maverick cuts that off leaving Tafuro nowhere to go and they touch!
Both men in the gravel and Tafuro facing the wrong way
Maverick still rolling keeps forth
Tafuro on the other hand slips to 8th right in front of the Brilley, Silva, Kamikaze battle
Marinescu's now lonely day perhaps sees a lapse in concentration and he runs wide and ends up facing the wrong way at 11
Girard has now closed the gap to Maverick because of the incident with Tafuro
Thats the end of part 2 with part 3 on its way
First to pit is De Boer
Followed by Maverick, Kederer and Tafuro

Girard is going to push Maverick to the end
While the gap is holding for Kamikaze
Just like Tafuro Girard goes for a double move on Maverick
Girard outbrakes himself hitting the side of Maverick
Sending them both into a spin and Kederer passes
Edvardson and Tafuro both go through as well
Maverick and Girard return to the circuit just ahead of Silva
Five laps to go and Vukcevic who has had a quiet race runs a little wide
Nearly collects the leader returning to the circuit though that was close
Alpenstrom is coming up on the battle for points now
Maverick takes a defensive line
But down the hill and he locks up running wide as Girard goes up the inside
He returns to the circuit but his points score today has gone
But this gives Kamikaze the 10th spot
Alpenstrom enters the last lap of what has been a dominant race
And takes home the win. Easy in the end for Sweden and Alpenstrom
De Boer second and Silvestre third
Unofficial standings of the race
Great race by Alpenstrom who took the lead in the first chicane and never looked back. Comfortable drive for De Boer and Silvestre with a lot of drama and action further down the grid. Great start to the championship and we hope to see you all for round 2 in Austria

There is only one word for this and it starts with F! Everything was looking so good. 4th was actually what I had hoped for because it had been the perfect outcome considering the boost points I used. How there is nothing, thanks to a Frenchman who - how should it be different - can't drive!

Press Release from the French GPGSL team....
Our man, Jean Girard truly excelled today. From the midfield, he showed just way we arrogant French put this genius behind the wheel. Plenty of passing from Jean, plenty of TV air time, we could not be happier. Although, the late spin with the Swiss machine cost us, and Switzerland some valuable positions in the finishing order. For that, we are disappointed. But, Jean has proved himself to be very capable.....
We apologise to Switzerland.
