Been up since 3am but oh well, absolutely shattered... Got some pics, I thought it was pretty clear Raikkonen was going to win it with the set up on Lewis' car and his fuel level - good race though and it was packed 
Cars:
saw this and quite liked it...
Then got to meet some people...
Hamilton, Sato, Coulthard, Button, Davidson and Eddie Jordan
some pics:
 < button in the distance 
Anyway that's it really, did anyone else go?

to watch the race, many people say you need to record it at home then watch it as you tend to miss most of it.

Cool pics 
Where would the crew and people have stayed over the weekend? Only I was out in MK last night and outside The Jury's Inn Hotel we saw 3 x Ferrari 360's, 3 x Porsche 911 Turbo's, 2 x Range Rover Sports, 1 x Range Rover Vogue, 2 x Aston Martin V8 Vantage's, and some rather nice Merc's. Seemed a bit strange for that much money to be in the area.
