This is a shot that will be used again and again on websites and in magazines around the world. Red Bull's ongoing spat with Renault ends up in the gravel trap after yet another engine 'lets-go' in a cloud of smoke.

You cannot predict where and when something like this will happen, so it's always nice to be in the right place at the right time, and whilst not the most artistic of images it is this type of photo that nicely portrays the news angle of the sport.
