Formula One is getting very interesting...

...and it's not just because there is a British driver doing well for a change! The recent spying row between McLaren and Ferrari lead to a £50 million fine for McLaren, and there has been some constant back-biting between the two drivers, Fernando Alonso and star Brit Lewis Hamilton, seemingly always at each others throats, and things took another turn after yesterdays Grand Prix in Belgium.

Hamilton claims that his team-mate tried to force him off the track at the start of the race, and only stayed in the race because there was a run-off area which he moved into before re-joining the main race track.

Kimi Raikkonen won the race, with Alonso 3rd, and Hamilton 4th. The Brit leads the table by just two points from Alonso, with Raikkonen still thirteen points behind, but with three races to go, it is all to fight for, and it looks as if the tension is already starting to take effect. Just keep your cool, Lewis!
