A Memorable Night to Forget

A memorable night for F1 fans and for Singapore but one to forget for Ferrari. What can I say that hasn't already been said?

Great fun and company. We went with Rhu & David, the former whom I've known half a lifetime ago (fancy that!) and whom I've gone for lessons on tennis, makeup, pottery & dancing ... among other crazy stuff like abseiling. So yeah, it was fun especially when we were all decked out in red on race-day :D

It's all Nelson Piquet's fault. Massa was leading and Kimi was steadily catching up on Hamilton. Then Piquet just had to lose it (again!) and as everyone know, the chain of events that happened made this the most disastrous race of Ferrari ever. [If you don't know what I'm talking about, which planet are u from?] It's of small consolation that Kimi holds the lap record.

A poster night for Singapore. Singapore was decked out in style. The skyline was breathtaking and the organization of the F1 was done in true Singapore fashion - well executed and meticulous. All in, much kudos. But does it have to be so bright? :D Yes, it's for the safety of the drivers but after all the touting of being able to see the glow of the disc brakes, the track was lit as bright as day.

Gotta get a bigger flag next year. I was waving a 25x20cm Finnish flag. It felt puny. I resolve to get the materials and get a tailor in Chengdu to make me a much larger one that's at least 4 times the current one :P Then I bought face paint and painted mini Finnish flags on our cheeks. Glad that DH went along with this craziness of mine :D [nope, those flags won't be much bigger next year ;) we also discovered that I'm a better artist than DH]

An obviously drunk Finn 4 rows behind us had a flag that was nearly 1.2m across. Before the race began, he yelled his war cry, "Sweden sucks!"
