Formula 1- review: Europe (Nürburgring)
Michael Schumacher won again. The race was extremly exciting, because after the first Pit stops, Fernando Alonso was still leading with his Renault, but after the second turn Alonso went into the Pit stop 3 laps before Michael, and this was the decision for the race. Schumacher went 3 very fast laps, and when he went out of the pitlane he was leading five seconds in front of Alonso. Fernando came closer till the end of the race, but it already was decided. Schumacher won 5 seconds in front of Alonso, 7 in front of Massa and 8 in front of Kimi Räikkönen. The 5th, Rubens Barichello, was already a minute behind them.
And special congratulations to the brazillian Felipe Massa, who got his FIRST podium finish in Formula 1 in his career. He sometimes was already very close to it, but now it finally happened. Congratulations, Felipe, go on like this.
