Miniatures of Juan Manuel Fangio and a flying Tommi Makinen

U.S.A. 2007


LEWIS HAMILTON DUPLICATES HIS CANADIAN GRAND PRIX - TAKES POLE, LEADS FROM THE START, NEVER HEADED EXCEPT DURING PIT-STOPS, AND WINS HIS SECOND SUCCESSIVE RACE. FERNANDO ALONSO TOOK 2ND FOR ANOTHER MCLAREN 1-2 BUT ALMOST GOT PAST HAMILTON MID-WAY THROUGH THE RACE AS HE SLIP-STREAMED HIS TEAM-MATE DOWN THE HOME STRAIGHT BUT COULDN'T QUITE GET HIS NOSE IN FRONT BEFORE TURN 1. FELIPE MASSA WAS 3RD, AHEAD OF KIMI RAIKKONEN. LEWIS NOW LEADS THE DRIVERS' CHAMPIONSHIP BY 10 POINTS FROM FERNANDO AND MCLAREN ARE AHEAD IN THE CONSTRUCTORS' RACE BY A SOLID 35 POINTS FROM FERRARI. ROBERT KUBICA WAS FIT TO RACE BUT THE DOCTORS SAID 'NO' IN CASE HE WAS INVOLVED IN A SECOND BIG ACCIDENT (ALWAYS A POSSIBILITY AT INDIANAPOLIS), WHICH COULD HAVE SERIOUS CONSEQUENCES AFTER SUFFERING CONCUSSION ONLY A WEEK AGO. BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY.
