I bet most of you out there knows what Grand Prix means but to those who don’t, Grand Prix means Great Prize.
Le sigh.
Life is sometimes not fair, is it not?
Then again, c’est la vie.
So, F1 in Valencia last Sunday was okay. Felipe Massa came in first, Lewis Hamilton second and Robert Kubica third. Well done to Felipe. Unfortunately though, Kimi Raikkonen had to pull out of the race 4 laps before finishing because his engine broke down. I don’t know what sound his engine made when it broke down but a lot of smoke emitted from it. Very depressing.
And that’s just the insult to injury, really. Before Kimi’s engine broke, he drove off while the fuel nozzle was still attached to his car causing the refuelling guy to get knocked over. Luckily for the refuelling guy, he only hurt his arm and back.
I hope both Kimi and Felipe will do well for the next race taking place in Belgium. Mmm, Belgian waffles. And yes, I’d fly all the way to Belgium just to eat waffles.
Okay, Arsenal now. We lost against Fulham at Craven Cottage. Yes, Fulham. It’s only 1 - 0 to Fulham but it’s still a loss. I’m still pretty gutted that we lost but I hope this serves as a wake up call for the Gunners. The next match is a Champions League Qualifier against FC Twente at the Emirates Stadium. Come on you Gunners!
N Levels is next week. We aren’t even done with the damned prelims and they want us to sit for the N Levels on September 2nd. That’s like Arsenal playing only one qualifying match against FC Twente and then immediately playing against a random club in the Champions League itself.
By the way, I don’t want to drink Nescafe’s canned coffee any more because Lewis Hamilton’s promoting it. They even have this online game called “Catch Lewis if you can” going on. Now why would I want to catch Lewis? He’s speeding away in a race car for God’s sake. And even if he walks and I’m supposed to “catch” him, I wouldn’t cause I’d be too lazy to. Unless I get a thousand dollars for catching Lewis, I’ll just sit here.
My mum asked why it was Formula 1 the other night. I never knew until today. According to wikipedia, the “formula” in the name refers to a set of rules to which all participants and cars must conform. I always thought Formula 1 meant that the fuel they used was of a number 1 formula.
