Karma is truly a bitch aint it? *g*
I’d been at a footie (soccer to you Americans) match today, and I was hoping that the race would have been over by the end of the game, (I get terribly anxious watching any sport where I’m emotionally invested in one of the players/teams) but it was still on, and I endured the most nerve-racking, dramatic finish to a race that F1 has ever seen.
Well done for winning the championship Lewis!
I think my thoughts about the FIA and Ferrari can be summed up in this comment by somebody called Milligan at the Yahoo UK site:
Even with all of FIA help Mclaren And Lewis World Champions 2008,
Got a Ferrari?
Not quite good enough at driving?
Are other boys faster than you in the wet?
Then you need:
