Spa F1 - Race Report

Race day!! Wonder what will happen today - and what the weather will be like! We were all kitted up and ready. It was difficult to get a spot as it was busier as predicted but we headed back to our corner and settled there. It was great. Actually people think it's boring to watch cars just going round but because you can't fully hear the commentary or see the screen the whole time you actually lose track of who is where in the race. All we knew was that Lewis and Rosberg was battling it out and we could tell the different by spotting their gloves as they went round the corner! We were watching them go round and round then all of a sudden Lewis comes limping past with a flat tyre - what was going on!!!??? We went and had a quick look at the screen and from what we figured out there was some kind of beef between the Mercedes team mates - not so friendly team mates! Turns out Rosberg had hit Lewis!! The weather held out for a dry race but because of all the drama Ricciardo ended up winning! We'll watch the race back when we get home to see all the ins and outs of what happened and the possible backlash to Rosberg!

Last night in Nemur we headed into the square to get some food - this time we had some Italian Tex Mex - a fusion of some kind! It was good, interesting but lovely and another delicious cappuccino! We wandered a little more round Nemur city then headed to the shop to stock up on beer - as were weren't having to carry our cases, once they were on the coach we didn't have to drag them anywhere so we loaded them up with as much beer as we could!!

Going to our first F1 was great, we had so much fun and as we aren't adverse to camping anyway the weather doesn't really matter or spoil the mood so we loved it!!
