Timo Glock plays down fitness issues

Timo Glock has stated that a operation to remove his appendix will not affect his preparation for the Malaysian Grand Prix.

The Virgin Racing star had the operation before the Australian Grand Prix, which he completed, but it is expected that the high speeds and humidity of Sepang will cause him problems.

However, the German told Eurosport that Malaysia “Shouldn’t be a problem,” and he was confident ahead of the race.

F1 tickets are available now.

Webber triumphs over Vettel in intense F1 British Grand Prix at Silverstone

Red Bull’s Mark Webber won a tremendously exciting British Grand Prix yesterday, after controversial circumstances left Red Bull boss Christian Horner being accused of favouritism. Prior to the race, the front wing on Webber’s team-mate Sebastian Vettel’s car was damaged, and Horner made the surprising decision to take the part from Webber’s car to give to the German – the justification being that Vettel was marginally ahead of the Australian in the championship race.

It was another blow for Webber after the team blamed him for the collision with Vettel in Turkey – even though most pundits deemed the crash the German’s fault – but he responded in the best possible way. Webber got a better start on the race, and kept the inside line, while Vettel was unable to even salvage second place as Lewis Hamilton of McLaren held a tight line just behind the Australian.

In fact, Vettel went off the track and punctured his tyre in the process – meaning he had to come in for an early pit stop from the back of the field. Webber meanwhile dominated throughout, despite a possible banana skin when the safety car tightened the field, and it will be interesting to see what happens should a similar situation arise with car parts in the next race. Hamilton drove wonderfully to retain second place, while Jenson Button also did excellently to salvage ten places from fourteenth – narrowly missing out on the podium to Nico Rosberg of Mercedes.

Hockenheimring is the name of the circuit for the next F1 Grand Prix, which is located less than 100 miles from both Frankfurt and Stuttgart. German Grand Prix tickets are on sale now for both practice, qualification and race day of the event, with weekend tickets also available. Prices begin at £125 from Seatwave.

Button and Hamilton vow Silverstone rivalry at British Grand Prix will be safe

Much was made of Red Bull team mates Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel colliding in Istanbul during the Turkish Grand Prix – a crash that ended the German driver’s race. Shortly afterwards on the same circuit, Lewis Hamilton was overtaken by fellow McLaren driver Jenson Button, but regained the lead on Turn One the next lap.

Although 1996 World Champion Damon Hill has predicted the British Grand Prix is where Hamilton and Button’s relationship will fall apart, this is the kind of rivalry that the two McLaren drivers envisage continuing – and their fierce competition between them has pushed each to perform to their best. Indeed, it could well be the reason that Hamilton and Button are first and second in the drivers’ championship respectively – a mere six points between them.

British F1 Grand Prix tickets are on sale now, and weekend tickets to watch practice, qualification and the race are available from £130 from SeeTickets.
