6 races in, and no driver or team has pulled away from the pack. Three teams and six drivers still questioning what was going to happen. The first 6 races where on even playing grounds. A few races left until the circuit hit Europe. Team would now start to run hard to gain what lead they could. Quotes from Martin Brundle and others.

Valencia also gave us the most terrifying crash in recent history. Lap 9, Webber following Kovalainen into turn thirteen, caught the back of the Lotus and sent him airborne. 
“You never want to fly in a Formula 1 car.” 
Fans alike across the globe watched in amazment as Mark Webber removed himself from his ruined RB6. "The impact was pretty solid. I actually snapped the brake pedal clean in half with my left foot,"
