The Dramatic Gran Premio De Espana!
Monday, April 28, 2008 1:10 AM
Another win for Kimi at Catalunya. (
clicky!) With Hammy finishing in 3rd, that means Kimi is leading the drivers' championship with a 9 points cushion! Yeay! Looking back at this point of time in the previous, I have to say that Kimi's start to this season has been relatively good. *hands touching my wooden desk while typing* *phew*
Dramatic is the world to describe the first GP in Europe this season. The drama started from Qualifying itself with Fernando Alonso, the ill-treated former World Champion at McLaren last season, but who is now back playing '
happy family' with Renault qualified in #2, a best for the team and the driver so far.
The
logical explanation - The engineers did something with the car during the 3 weeks window and it works so it paid off.
The a
little bit logical explanation - Fernando pulled off a miracle in his beloved home country for the home crowd. Ohh wheee!
The
wtf explanation - He somehow stole Ferrari's engine for the qualifying. Hehheh.
And the drama continues during the race just a few hours ago, with only 13 out of 22 cars managed to complete the race. The mother of all dramas being Heikki Kovalainen's disastrous accident at Turn 9 due to suspected punctured front left tyre which saw him rammed and buried deep into the tyre wall. (
clicky!) He was ok nonetheless, waving and giving thumb-ups to the crowd as he was being stretched away. Quote my brother, "Siao kia(
translation: nut case)! Accident until like this still can wave!"
But my personal mother of all dramas is Kimi's new haircut. A-la Lewis Hamilton! No kidding.
B4 - Ice-man Now - bad-ass
Great. Suits all his "go to hell hand gestures" on the track.
Oh and by the way, I'm so dead. I've only done revising 2 pages of my Spanish notes the entire day. God knows what I was doing. So, if Pepe(no, the lecturer's name is Joel but from certain angel he does look a bit like Pepe) ask me something which I won't be able to answer in Spanish, I'll answer in English and go "No se, va reverso.net!" (
translation: I don't know, you go reverso.net!)
