Once again, Fernando Alonso has found himself running out of speed at the crucial end of the race when his tires wear out on his Ferrari. This time, it was Mark Webber, the driver at the Red Bull team, who profited by the sudden dip in grip, to pass Alonso and win the British Grand Prix at Silverstone, the second time the Australian has won his Red Bull team's home race.
It was a disastrous weekend for the fans as there was rain and flooding and interrupted qualifying on Saturday, and many of them had been warded away from the circuit on Saturday. But the arrived in droves on Sunday for a race that finished with a bang, and the popular victory by Webber.
