But as central as the Chinese port city has become to the international auto show circuit, the expo wasn't the only event of worldwide interest occurring there this week.<br />
<br />
Shanghai also played host this weekend to the Chinese Grand Prix, the third race in this year's <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/f1">Formula One World Championship</a>. And with rivalries so closely contested, it was still anyone's guess as to how it would unfold. Follow the jump for the full play-by-play.<br />
