Tweets of the Week - Lotus lapping rival new teams - All the reaction from the long and epic Canadian Grand Prix
Published by Christine
All the sports seemed to collide this week as journalists and drivers prepared for what turned out to be an epic Canadian Grand Prix, whilst at the same time cheering on their own countries in the World Cup. There was also the small thing of the Le Mans 24 Hour race going on at the same time. Twitter could barely cope! But here's a sample of the best tweets of the last week.
Week Ending: 13th June 2010
1. Karun swaps one climate for another similar one.
bags packed and glad to be leaving a cold and wet brackley now.... except the forecast for montreal is cold and wet as well !!

2. Our excitable friend counts down the hours.
Heading to paris and then to montreal! It is just amazing to race this weekend! I cant wait anymore!!! YESSSSS
3. Heikki reluctantly picks a side.
My bet for winning the #worldcup is Argentina, not really bothered as Finland didnt qualify... #fb
4. Sadly, his race was shortlived.
Montreal. Tough track but fun. VERY slippery but hopefully another strong weekend ahead. Good work today but much more to do tomorrow...
5. Virgin's test driver is eyeing up other roles.
By the way Petrov is always doing a very good job! Alguersuari as well..... Hope to see very good qualy!
6. Whilst his employers get to grips with a chaotic race.
It's like kwik fit in here today! Contemplating getting the tyres from the hire car ;-)
7. A good point well made.
If you've got friends who still think overtaking is all about the cars and not about the circuit, make them watch Montreal over and over...
8. Mike Gascoyne and Lotus continue to do well.
Great race from Heikki, and jarno was flying before his problem. Great to be racing the midfield and lapped all other new teams
9. James Roberts considers sunglasses post-race.
Both Lewis and Jenson put on fresh jackets for the press conferences! Look at how shiny they are! #f1 #grandprix
10. Finally, a thought that is echoed across the globe.
Bar a short nap overnight, I've now been working for 36 hours. That's quite a lot. Whose daft idea was a Canada/Le Mans clash?
