That was the most boring race I’ve seen in ages. The field spread resulted in 2 things , A) the cars could not overtake because they never got close to each other and B) no overtaking resulted in no accidents and no safety car. No safety car meant my strategy of holding back on the front runners never resulted to anything. I may has well taken my normal approach and concentrated on the front end.

I did lay Lewis which was a good move but had to take a small green instead of a big win amongst the confusion of a possible Massa drive through penalty. They had better not penalise him to the extent the race win is taken away – he drove a great race and deserves the win –The only reason James Allen and ITV are making such a big issue of it is because it means Lewis would win the race.

The only market I won on this weekend was the fastest lap market. I didn’t play much else and I’m glad because my whole ‘game plan’ for the weekend was wrong. By not playing I kept my losses to a minimum!

When I watched the GP2 race this morning alarm bells started ringing about the possibility of no safety car. I very rarely play the safety car market and I’m glad I didn’t this week – I think it was 1.25 for it to make an appearance before the race.

I am a bit annoyed about making a loss this weekend and I don’t really know how I managed it! The two main trades I made were backing Kimi for pole and Laying Lewis for the race. I traded both for greens but lost too much money on smaller positions which with hindsight I can now see where wasteful.

From memory this is the first time the 3 first drivers on the start grid have finished in that order which tells you something about the race and the track. Oh well – today was a learning experience and next year I will know what to expect.

Hope you did better than me this weekend, if you didn’t – give up!
