German Grand Prix - Race!!!


Fernando Alonso led a controversial one-two for Ferrari in the German Grand Prix at Hockenheim with the Scuderia seeming to instruct Felipe Massa to let him past!!!

Massa leapt from third to first at the start of the race, with Alonso slotting in behind him as poleman Sebastian Vettel - who finished on the podium - fell back to third.
The Brazilian was de facto leader until Alonso moved past on lap 49 of 67, soon after Ferrari had asked engineer Rob Smedley to tell him: "Fernando is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?"
The next message from Smedley was: "Well done. Good lad. Not try and keep with him. I'm sorry."
The incident is likely to come under fire from the media.
It is Ferrari's first one-two since the opening race of the season in Bahrain and they showed the greater pace throughout.
