Getting far too expensive tho and when you have been since it started, you start to see the same cars over and over again. But it is still one of the hightlights of the motorsport scene!!!

Normally F1 cars showboat to the crowd, but Heidfeld was really on a mission that weekend. Minimal wheelspin etc. Quite something to see given the straw bale safety equipment. I saw him do that run.
