Grosjean is back in the lead on provisional classification.Alberto Valerio has claimed his first GP2 victory with a mature drive in race one on Saturday, combining aggression to overtake for the lead along with a strong but sensible pace thereafter to protect both his lead and his tyres to lead home countryman Lucas di Grassi and Nico Hülkenberg.Pastor Maldonado has taken his second victory of the season on Sunday in race two at Silverstone, leading from lights to flag despite race long pressure and a late safety car period to claim the win ahead of Andreas Zuber and Karun Chandhok.After he clinched position 5 and 4, Grosjean has extended his championship lead over Barwa Addax teammate Vitaly Petrov by 40 points to 33, with the ART pair all equal on 26 points, just two ahead of di Grassi.
