I had a brill weekend thanks! I was distraught on lap 8 but ecstatic at the end by his stunning recovery. And the sun was out

I think I got too much sun

Stonemonkey and RC, you guys had a great GP for 2013... I don't know if you got to walk the circuit post race but I would have kept my eyes peeled for some tire shreds... this was one of those races that you'll be able to say remember Silverstone that year when all the tires were blowing up. Well here's one of those shreds.

A piece of history!

Went for a beer instead then met up by the stage for the interviews.

I got bits of tyre that time I was lying on the track....2011 I think. But then I lost them this year wanted a goosd place by the stage, so went straight there. Would have been good though to get a bit of exploded Lewis tyre

this time im going to do them a few at a time so that if my computer has a hissy fit in the middle i wont have to start right back at the beginning.

You had BBQs! We weren't allowed them at the golf club campsite

Thanks for posting, cool to see your pics.

[stonemonkey]

Here's some of the drivers parade.

And the campsite

[racechick]

Yes, we could have BBQ' s, and all for the sum off £15 per person per night and only a field away from Copse corner but I have to say your camping looks a little more civilised than ours was.

I missed pictures of the drivers parade. I had two options get the camera set up zoomed right in to Lewis. Or wave jump around frantically waving the Hamilton banner in the vain hope he'd notice. I went for the latter option, hence no pics. But it was worth it because he noticed and I got a thumb up

lol I would've been sitting near racechick if I went this year

[racechick]

I love how in the parade Bottas is just chillin' like he's waiting to meet someone outside a bar,.

[stonemonkey]

.... but I have to say your camping looks a little more civilised than ours was.

The food probably wasn't, not that I'm complaining, it was burgers and steaks but shame we couldn't BBQ.

Who is the interviewer near the back of the trailer wearing the Union Jack pants?

I believe that would be Natalie Pinkham for Sky Sports F1
