Season 1 British Grand Prix was the first Grand Prix to be held in Season 1 and also the first Formula GP race ever. The race was won by Ture Simonsson, driving for Joka GP, who led from start to finish, after claiming the Pole Position in qualifying. Danilo Mastronardi and Pelle Johansson completed the podium.

Report[edit | edit source]

Today marks a great day in history as the Formula GP cars line up for what is going to be the first ever race! 16 cars have made it to the grid, this should be a very exciting one.

As the lights go out, it is Simonsson with a great start! He keeps the lead ahead of Veres and Mezei! Further back, Mastronardi has a great start and moves up to 6th place already. We are now on the second lap and Mezei is eyeing up a pass on Veres. They go into Stowe side by side and OOOH! Contact between the two Hungarian drivers! Both of them are out of the race! That is such a shame, it was looking promising for the both of them. All of the chaos moves up Johansson to second, followed by Aldenberg and Mastronardi in 4th!

We are now almost halfway through the race and it is still Simonsson in the lead. He is reigning supreme here at Silverstone today and it looks like nothing can get in the way of that. Further down the field though, we have some great battles. There is a three way scrap for second place between Johansson, Aldenberg and Mastronardi. At the same time, Correa and Piazza are going at it for 8th place. It looks like Correa will be able to get Piazza around the outside at Brooklands, this would be a great move! Oh no! What happened there?! It looks like Piazza's suspension failed on him and that caused him to slide into Correa! Correa is able to bring his car back to the pits, but surely his race is over. The damage was too big.

Back at the front, there is still a big fight over second place. These drivers must be pushing hard! And just as I say that, Aldenberg makes a mistake and drops back behind the other two drivers! He was lucky to keep the car rolling there! We are now approaching the end of the race, but we still have no idea who will get second place! It is now the final lap, and Mastronardi is all over the back of Johansson. He tries to pull off a switchback in Luffield, and they are going side by side towards Copse! Surely not here! They go through the corner side by side! Johansson has to yield, Mastronardi moves up to second place with a spectacular move! At the front however, it is Simonsson who wins the race after leading from start to finish. Mastronardi comes home in second place, ahead of Johansson, Aldenberg, Almeida and Magnussen. Hernandez, Stangl, Pretre and Castillo round out the points scoring positions.

That rounds out the first race, and what a race it was! It was filled with action, and we got a well-deserved winner in the end.
