My German GP moments
Mark Webber's stunning first victory. The struggles of Brawn. Rubens Barrichello's astonishing post-race "eruption". The magnetic attraction of Force India's Adrian Sutil to Kimi Raikkonen's Ferrari. Watch my pick of the best moments of the German Grand Prix.

What do you think of Max Mosley's endorsement of former Ferrari team boss Jean Todt as his successor?

Headline grabbing journalism, yes - a fair representation of the situation, no!

Would you be able to elaborate more on Rubens Barichello's "Bla Bla Bla Bla Bla"
This type of language seems to me the one in use between the Big 8 prancing primadonnas versus Mosely.
That's a hell of a lot of Bla's.

Please can you explain why nobody this weekend has given Williams and Nico any credit for his superb drive on Sunday.
Considering he was carrying a fuel problem(extra 15kg) I thought it was an equally brillant drive as Mark Webber's .
Dai the speed

How come Kimi Raikonen also has bad look at Nurburgring:
2009: retired
2007: retired
2006: 4th
2005: Crashed on the last lap while leading
2004: retired
2003: retired
2002: 3rd
2001: 10th

Yes, despite the HUGE talent of the entire Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ F1 team, we somehow managed to diminish Ferrari's achievements this season by forgetting that Kimi made the podium in Monaco. Sorry, sorry, sorry...and as the producer of Murray's blog I take full responsibility and will be emigrating tomorrow!
Seriously though, yes thanks for pointing it out and it just goes to prove to Murray, Paul and myself that you do watch these pieces carefully and hopefully still enjoy them. We will try harder next time and I have sent Murray back to his darkened office to study the history of Formula One until he can recite the results of every Grand Prix held since 1950!

However, given Ferrari's usually dire form this year, it can be easy to forget. Plus, Raikkonen is a man of many victories - had Adrian Sutil made it to the podium in Monaco, everyone would have remembered it!
Talking of Raikkonen, Sutil and Monaco, I thought exactly the same thing when the clash happened. Instant flashbacks of Monaco 2008. The pair need to have words...

Can anyone tell me what the track used at the start of each of Murray's videos is? It's very catchy.
