Formula 1 racing
This season Valencia makes its first appearance on the Formula One calendar and, after studying data from the first seven races of the season, Bridgestone have announced plans to take their super-soft and soft tyre compounds to the new Spanish street circuit, which will host the European Grand Prix in August.
The two main rivals for the 2008 drivers’ title scored just one point between them in Sunday’s Japanese Grand Prix. Ferrari’s Felipe Massa finished eighth, while championship leader Lewis Hamilton managed only 12th for McLaren.
