A Long Time..

It has been a long while since this blog has been updated. The reasons for that are many, but none worth any illustrious mention !

So, since my last post, a lot of water has passed under the bridge. This shall, hence be a stock-taking post, where I will just reflect on things past, in no particular order.

MF1, previously Jordan, is now Spyker. This had been threatening to happen, and finally did. Hopefully the Dutch group will show more interest in racing (given their past, that is a reasonable expectation), and Alex Shnaider can perhaps buy a English Premier League club. (Spurs would be a good bet, I think).

Two of the most colorful characters in F1 have left F1. JPM for NASCAR, where he is better suited I think, and JV to I dont know where, but possibly to some series in USA, but more likely to a blissful married life. Will they be missed ? You bet.

The biggest news, of course has to be that of Schumi's retirement. It will be hard to see an F1 grid next year without Schumi in a red Ferrari. Next year, Alonso will delight us by showing how highly over-rated a driver he is, and Massa and Kimi will destroy him. But, Schumi will be sorely missed.

Alonso's behaviour under pressure leaves a lot to be desired. He can learn a lot from Kimi and Michael in that regard. For the past 2-3 months, as his lead has reduced, his behaviour (from Hungary, then Turkey and now Monza) has been rather rude.

Lots of other news, that would normally make it to my blog, but will stay out because this post will get too long otherwise.

Here's to an exciting championship !
