Chequered Flag

Kimi started the race at pole position. I missed the beginning of the race and was fuming. I left office early enough to catch commentary and warm up lap. However, encountered a slight hiccup when I received panic call from Chairwoman.

I rushed from the female locker room to meet Chairwoman to provide an immediate remedy : a hug.

Rounded up an all-time smart-ass-comic-relief and headed to the nearest mamak. Discussed the "hiccup" in a metaphoric way (Have you ever known me to be not metaphoric?) And received some refreshing overview from a person of whom is supposed to be "one of us". But that input kinda put a lot of things in perspective for Chairwoman and I. Not totally agreeing, but it does provide a certain "outlet" for the hiccup at hand.

I rushed home from there and my dad was in front of the tv. When I finally shoo-ed him out of the way, I already missed half a lap from the start-off. I dropped everything and started watching with a frown on my face. Kimi was leading, if he kept it up, he could have won.

Kimi retired after 9 laps, much to my dismay. His technical team ought to be sacked, again.

I watched the race non-committedly with so much as a grimace on my face. Absolutely jumped out of my seat when Sato overtook Webber. (was it Webber?) I was hoping that sometime over the race, the wheels to the only remaining Ferrari would just fall off. What else would surprise us? Even Kimi's spoiler flew off, anything is possible. To me, after Kimi retired from the race, anyone is a better winner than that person, the Red Menace.

The last 10s lap of the race proved to be more exciting than any race of the season. I am glad that Alonso held up and was not intimidated. Way to go, Fernando.

No wonder I watched the race till the end, I knew Alonso was gonna prove it worthwhile. It's about time someone put the Reds back in place.

Thank you JC for the wonderful and thoughtful gift. I know that you were the only one listening throughout my whimsical rhetoric.

Thank you muchly. God bless..
