German Grand Prix Race Broadcast
Hello and welcome to Hockenheim and the 2005 Formula One German Grand Prix. In yesterdays qualifying session Sauber driver Nick Heidfeld took a surprise pole position ahead of Felipe Massa in the Ferrari. Can Massa make it two wins in a row or will Nick Heidfeld win for the first time? Could someone else cause a surprise? Lets find out!
The red lights are on
Heidfeld leads us away
Poor start for Button but what a start by Villeneuve! He's up 5 places
Michael Schumacher is having a look at Massa who dropped to 3rd in the first corner
He didn't make it and now he's under pressure from Coulthard
David Coulthard is facing the wrong way
And has caused mayhem on the track
Alonso is through into 4th
Rosberg 5th
Schuamcher is 6th
Button 7th
And Villeneuve is in 8th just ahead of Coulthard
Villeneuve is overtaken by Coulthard and Vettel off camera and now he's hit the back of the Mclaren
He's airborn
And out of the race
Alonso is wide at the first turn
He spins and narrowly avoids collecting Schumacher
Oh look! Robert Kubica is copying him.
Kubica rejoins in 20th
Just ahead of Alonso, who is last
Glock outbrakes himself
And runs into the side of Lotterer
This causes Lotterer to spin
He's hit by Klien in the Minardi
Lotterer will have to pit
Klien is out of the race
Glock is out via suspension failure
Vettel is looking to make his way through into 7th
Sato spins in the 1st corner
Here's the current top 8
Barrichello is all over Heidfeld!
And the Renault driver takes the lead
4 laps later, Massa takes second from Heidfeld
Barrichello undoes all his hard work by running wide in turn 1 and spinning
He rejoins in 4th ahead of Rosberg
Coulthard has run wide in turn one too!
He's now in 12th
Fisichella has a problem
And it's terminal
Schumacher looks to pass Heidfeld
Not this time though
The German is the first to come in. That's a definite 3 stopper.
Barrichello spins again!
He's down to 4th
Not for long though, Massa is out with an Engine problem
Vettel is putting Button under pressure
And the Brit runs wide
He's now down in 6th
Make that 7th!
Here's the top 8
An engine problem ends Ralf Schumacher's race as Heidfeld pits
Barrichello is also in
Heidfeld rejoins in 6th, just ahead of traffic
Michael Schumacher goes down the inside of Button
Rosberg pits
He's back out ahead of Heidfeld and Barrichello! Great stuff from Mclaren
The current standings
Disaster for Heidfeld. He's in the gravel.
Schuamcher pits
Heidfeld rejoins in 14th. That's ruined his chance of some points
Zonta runs wide at turn 1
Button is under the cosh from Alonso
And spins his way through turn 1
He only loses 1 place
Lotterer becomes the latest retirement
Ok own up! Who put oil on Renault's tyres?
Coulthard rejoins in 15th
Raikkonen passes Kubica down the inside
Race leader Rosberg pits
And he retains the lead as Vettel sets a new fastest lap
He's all over Barrichello
Barrichello responds with a fastest lap of his own
Feeling left out, race leader Rosberg puts in a new fastest time
But Barrichello beats it!
Here's the order of those still in the race
Another fastest lap for Barrichello
Schuamcher looks to pass Davidson
oh no! He's spun it
Da Matta is through
So is Alonso
Michael will still get 1 point
Rosberg wins the German grand prix!!! He'll be delighted to win his home race
Barrichello is second
Vettel is third

DOTD: Mclaren's Nico Rosberg produced a faultless drive to capture his first F1 win so it has got to be him. A major contender was Anthony Davidson who did brilliantly to get the Minardi into 5th.

Very bad race, unfortunate for Felipe to DNF, he showed some good pace.
Fernando was doing very well too today! Too bad he needed to get into the end of the field at the beginning of the race!
If you are racing, keep on racing and get some points!

Mclaren Mercedes
Absolutely fantastic result for us. Couldn't have asked for anything more from the buys. It's about time we didn't have a DNF and we got a race win. Hopefully we can kick on now and win more. We can confirm that we have offered Sebastian a new 3 year deal in the Driver 1 seat.

Vettel Snubs McLaren to Join Red Bull
Shortly after completing a double podium finish for McLaren at the German Grand Prix it was confirmed by Sebastian Vettel's management that the young German had rejected a extension to his current contract at McLaren, in order to join his current team mate Nico Rosberg at Red Bull on a shorter two year deal. They also confirmed that Vettel had received numerous offers from teams up and down the grid and that the deal will come to a total of around £17.5m.
Da Matta Extends Stay at Toyota
Whilst Sebastian Vettel was busy moving teams, Cristiano Da Matta today announced that he would not be after confirming that he had signed a two year extension to his current deal which will see him stay at Toyota until the end of 2007. Da Matta has been a prominent figure for Toyota since joining forces with them in 2003, rewarding their belief in him with their only victories to date a the 2004 San Marino Grand Prix and this year in Barcelona. The deal is reported to worth around £15m.
Drivers open for contract offers until the end of round 13
Drivers open for contract offers until the end of round 14
Drivers with contracts for 2006
Team Budgets
Also, after the Hungarian GP (Also I can't remember if anyone had offered to run this race?) there is the next of the mid-season tests this time at Silverstone so I'll be sending out the ranking pms over the next few hours.

Good point, I'd actually forgotten about this. However we do have a slight problem as we only have the contract details of 6 of the drivers so I'll add the drivers we have to the available drivers after the next race. I still have your original bid by the way.
