Is he gonna retire?


Oh yes, my love for the Formula 1 sport.

Just finished watching The Italian Monza Grand Prix... Michael Schumacher just won, Raikonnen 2nd and this 21 yr old Polish fella named Kubica in a BMW coming in 3rd in his 3rd race only. Alonso, of all days, blew his engine with 10 laps to go, now reducing his championship lead to just 2 points. 2 POINTS! omg its gonna be a good close to the season with 3 more races to go.

But i suppose its the post race events that's gonna be remembered. After Schumi got out of his car to congratulate his team engineers and bosses, he must have noticed the start/finish straight. Yep. The tifosi had invaded the entire length of the straight, 100000 predominantly red supporters waving flags, setting off smoke bombs, singing the national anthem for a national victory (Italy also won the motoGP in Malaysia hours ago. V Rossi). With such a sight, could he possibly announce his retirement?

Yep.

So we are gonna see the last 3 races of a passing legend, one who carries with him controversies, but nevertheless the most outstanding race driver of this generation, and very possibly of all time. Till China, next time.

Meanwhile, I need to do some rice-cooker hunting. + webcam hunting. + sony rechargeable hunting. hurhur. And also, plan which F1 races I'm gonna catch while im in Europe! (I heard Silverstone in UK is offering tickets now which will refund 1/2 price if Jenson Button wins the 2007 race. hehe)

Federer vs Roddick , US Open final in a few hours time. shld be good viewing.
