Red Bull dominate as Brawn fade in the coolness of an English summer. Great result for Red Bull with another one-two, at Silverstone in the dry this time, showing that they really do have a pretty good car and are in the hunt for the title. Button struggled to beat his qualifying position of sixth, but still holds the championship lead nicely. The race is on, can Red Bull overhaul Brawn over the second half of the season?

But what about SofaF1? Fourstar lumbers into action with more than a third of his points this year in one race alone! Igor and Nick still at the top of the table but the midfield is getting pretty busy.

So will some of our competitors be breaking away this weekend or will everyone remember to put in their entries for the SofaF1 British Pole Poll.

What do we want? The pole sitter and the top eight point scorers for the race

When do we want it? Before qualifying starts.

Good luck!

Another race, another win for Brawn and Button. Red Bulls are getting closer with Vettel taking pole, but gave the lead to Button on lap one and couldn't regain it again. Webber's superior strategy leapfrogged him ahead of Vettel too, while Barrichello retired the Brawn for the first time. Every one else was pretty much playing catch up, Ferrari improving a bit but still not anywhere close. Rosberg finally has a good finish result in fifth after all his speedy practices.

So Ferrari believe that Turkey might well be their turning point for the season, but what do you think that's what we're here to find out.

Other possible excitements for this race weekend include the possibility of somebody other than Jenson winning a race - hey it could happen.

We were told earlier in the season that Turkey will be the race which decides Piquet's fate. But in many ways Bourdais looks closer to the brink. Not for points but it might be fun to see who you guys think wil be the first driver tone shown the door.
