The best pics from Magny Cours

Nick Heidfeld and Bobby Kubica enjoy a cheese and wine tasting session. Nick, in particular, seems to be having a fine time. Question (we have asked it before): why do the poor BMW drivers always get to do the shittiest PR set-ups? You wouldn’t catch Kimi Raikkonen sat in a field before a GP, with a wooden tray of brie and grapes laid out in front of him.

More pics this way…

Heikki Kovalainen and Lewis Hamilton pose with the new McLaren 40th anniversary book, “McLaren - The Cars”, which tells you all you need to know about every McLaren F1 car ever built (you can buy it here). It must be heavy if it needs two men to carry it.

Kimi Raikkonen takes his Ferrari for a spin during Friday’s practice session.

Lewis Hamilton (3rd), Kimi Raikkonen (1st) and Felipe Massa (2nd) celebrate after Saturday’s qualifying session. That’s a big-ass can of Red Bull, the Ferrari drivers are packing.

Tamara Ecclestone, a humble pit-lane reporter (and billionaire’s daughter), arrives at Magny Cours, prepared to seek out some juicy F1 gossip.

Brazilian football star Ronaldo and current girlfriend enjoy some French hospitality. Nice Afro Ron.

The two Ferraris lead the field into the first corner. That’s about as exciting as it got.

One long snooze later, Massa takes the chequered flag.

Massa gets stuck into the victory champagne.

Kimi Raikkonen (left) looks absolutely delighted with his second place.
