//:: My God! It's so ugly! "2009 F1 Preparations"

Today is the first testing day for all the teams in formula 1 in preparation for the up coming 2009 season. Circuit de Catalunya in Spain, is the venue where teams will be testing their 2009 spec cars. Teams will be testing their interim cars with the new aero package, the KERS system, and the comeback of the sticky slick tires. Now! I know people have been waiting for this day. For them also to see how the new rules will shape the cars looks. Forget the KERS for now, coz we can't really see it. Let's look at how the rules shapes it up ... so first "noticeably" it's the much lower and much wider front wing and the much taller and much narrower rear wing of the car. As you will see here below, the BMW Sauber first outing with their test mule ....
My God! It's soooo ugly! Now I'm not saying this because this is not really my team. But this is to show you a closer idea to what the 2009 cars will look like. Now I know the front wings will be more fluid and we will see lots more changes in the fluidity and the angles of those wings at the start of the season. It will also have some sort of mechanism on it to change the angle of the wing via the steering wheel controls. But oh my! Would you just look at it! The good side about this new aero rules in formula 1 is. It's gonna lose all the winglets, meaning there will be less drag and so it will be much faster in the straights. Because it will lose downforce for loosing the wings, it will be slower in the corners. But! With the comeback of the slick tires drivers can still me aggressive in the corners thanks to added mechanical grip from those sticky sticky slick tires.

The other teams have not yet used their interim car. They are still using the 2008 aero package and probably just testing their KERS system. Which is a lesser obviously development for the eyes of everyone. Some of the teams are also testing to evaluate drivers for the 2009 season.

Honda, Williams, Red Bull, Force Inda, Renault, Mclaren and Ferrari also fielded the circuit to test and evaluate tires, the KERS and their drivers for the coming season. 5 time World-Rally Champion Sebastien Loeb is testing for Red Bull as a price for his success' in WRC. The Italian Valentino Rossi, MotoGP great who they call "The Dr." will also be testing for the Italian team for the 2nd time!

//:: A passer by...

This video was taken a year ago. I was passing by Kanto Bar at MTS and a friend who just gave birth to a boy was on stage. So had a little talk with her like 5 minutes before she went up to do her first set. Then decided to put a conga beside her so I can jam with her for a couple of songs.

Mind you, she did say she was abit nervous to sing that night cause it was her first time to do a set after giving birth. She's abit scared she might run out of air. She was just being defensive really. ;) She's a good singer ... so enjoy Maan Chua with me on the conga

//:: A Bloody Red Thing!

Would you just look at that "Bloody Red Thing!"

Ferrari who won their 16th constructors title in Formula 1 has celebrated with a spider version of the great and ultimate F430 Scuderia. They call it ....

The F430 Scuderia Spider 16M
The "16" denotes Ferrari's total number of F1 constructors championships. Just take a look at that awesome shape!! I can't help thinking that it actually looks better than it's hard top brother!

If it's the looks your after. I think this is a good choice. But if it's performance your after, hmmm... let's take a closer look at the papers. Shall we?...

It's bigger brother, the hardtop F430 Scuderia is all about weight loss - 100kg lighter than the stock version of the Ferrari F430. Now why is the Scud Spider only 10kg lighter than the stock F430? I should point out that a car's roof helps strengthen the car. It makes it stiff and strong. If you take it out. Only the floor remains as the strengthening bone of the front and the rear of the car which as lots of people has said that it makes a car feel like foam that it twists about. So engineers have to put more strengthening beams and stuff to the floor just to make it stiff and safe. These added strengthening parts adds weight. So that means with more weight it gonna be abit slow.

To make you feel abit better. Just think of... that it's 80kg lighter than the stock F430 spider! That will help you abit!

So let's take a look what this car can do...
  • It still has the legendary 510bhp, 4.3-litre V8 engine
  • Will hit 0-100kph in 3.7 seconds - a mere tenth slower than the hard it's hard top big brother and a full .4 quicker than the stock F430 spider
  • Top Speed is 316kph (Ohh did I say the extra weight slows it down?)

//:: The Greatest team ever in Formula 1


They hold the best record in Formula 1. They're arguably the best Formula 1 team ever. The oldest team on the grid who has competed in all seasons starting 1950. Let's take a quick look at the record of Scuderia Ferrari in Formula 1.

To date they hold:
  • Most constructor championships: 16
  • Most driver championships: 15
  • Most wins (all-time): 208
  • Most wins (season): 15 (tied with McLaren)
  • Most podiums (all-time): 617
  • Most podiums (season): 29
  • Most pole positions (all-time): 201
  • Most points (all-time): 4,887.27
  • Most points (season): 262
  • Most fastest laps (all-time): 215
  • Highest winning percentage: ~26% (for teams with at least 10 wins)
Ferrari never really started to build cars to make money. Enzo Ferrari himself built a car to join races. In the midst of crisis he had to sell his cars just to fund his racing team. Selling his previous race cars and to build another to race for another year. It was his passion for racing which drove every single women and men in his team to push harder....

Let's take a closer look on the cars and drivers which allowed Scuderia Ferrari to win and claim the 16 Constructors title in the history of Formula 1.
  • Ferrari 156 F1 - Ferrari and it's drivers dominated the season, taking both the Drivers' title and Constructors' title in 1961. The team won 5 out of the 8 races during the 1961 season where Phil Hill took 3, Wolfgang Von Trips with 1 and Giancarlo Baghetti also with 1.
  • Ferrari 158 F1 - John Surtees became the first and only driver ever to take the highest accolade on 2 and on 4 wheels. The 158 F1 is also the car the marked Ferrari's return to the 8-cylinder engines. The 158 F1 also allowed the team to take the constructors title in 1964.
  • Ferrari 312 T - After 11 years, Ferrari was back on top, winning both Drivers' and Constructors' title with Niki Lauda clocking 5 wins while Clay Regazonni took 1 in 1975.
  • Ferrari 312 T2 - Because of a very successful season in 1975. The 1976 season started they way the 1975 season ended where Ferrari dominating it with 6 wins out of the first 9.
  • Ferrari 312 T2 (1977) - An updated version of the Ferrari 312 T2 from 1976 allowed the team to grab the constructors title and Niki Lauda for the drivers title in 1977.
  • Ferrari 312 T4 - Ferrari was back in form and won both championship in 1979. Where the Jody Sheckter taking the drivers title.
  • Ferrari 126 C2 - A terrible destiny prevented Ferrari to take both championship during the 1982 season. One of the most popular Ferrari drivers of all time, Gilles Villenueve, lost his life while practicing for the Belgian GP at Zolder. Less, than 3 months later, Didier Pironi was seriously injured during the warm-up for the German Grand Prix. The 126 C2 proved to be a particularly competitive car, a fact that ensured Ferrari the constructors title in 1982 thanks to Patrick Tambay and Mario Andretti.
  • Ferrari 126 C3 - From 1983
  • Ferrari F399 - The year 1999 was the start of the great combination of Michael Schumacher and Ferrari. The team took the Constructors' titles up to the 2004 season.
  • F1-2000 - The start of Michael Schumacher's greatness with Ferrari.
  • Ferrari F2001
  • Ferrari F2002 - Won 16 Grand Prix from a total of 20 races from 2002 and 2003
  • Ferrari F2003-GA
  • Ferrari F2004 - The most successful F1 car Maranello has produced which won 15 out of the 18 races in 2003. The car that allowed Michael Schumacher to win his 7th Drivers' title. A record which is said to be unbeatable. Which named Michael Schumacher The Greatest Formula 1 driver of all.
  • Ferrari F2007 - A year full of controversy where title rival Mclaren was removed and disqualified from the championship after the court has proved that a Mclaren engineer has a stolen copy of the technical data of the present car of Ferrari (F2007) and a detailed layout design of the F2008 (which was to compete in the 2008 season). The car that allowed Kimi Raikonen to grab his first ever Drivers' title.
  • Ferrari F2008 - The 54th single-seater of Ferrari. Code named 659, Ferrari's interpretation of the new regulations in force in the 2008 season.

//:: Heart felt defeat, but praised Felipe

The 2008 Formula1 Brazilian Grand Prix was the best and dramatic race I've ever witnessed on TV. Ferrari's Felipe Massa on the first slot of the grid. Followed by Jarno Trulli, Kimi Raikonen on third and then title leader Lewis Hamilton (Who eventually became the 2008 world champion).

Lewis Hamilton only had to finish the top 5 position to win the title but Felipe on the other hand had a much bigger job to do in which he had to finish and cross the line 1st for the Brazilian Grand Prix. Felipe being the local boy and hero for the Brazilian Fans was cheered on for the rest of the afternoon. It was amazing how noisy it was. Unlike in other places and circuits where you can actually here the blowhorns of the fans to cheer when the cars pass right by them. But in Brazil it was a different story. It's like watching the world cup (soccer) where you can hear everyone singing "Ole ... ole ole ole" (Does anyone know the title?) and sometimes screaming for Brazil! You can also hear them play the batucada drum beats which is amazing! That's how noisy and great it was out their at Interlagos! Really shows how passionate Brazilian fans are when it comes to sports.

Back to the Race, since Thursday (October 20, 2008) that week. Teams already knew that on the race day Sunday (November 2, 2008) it was gonna rain. When exactly and how heavy the rain will be is the biggest question for most of the team. The race was delayed for 10 minutes because of the heavy rain. And after a minute, the sun came out! That's how crazy it was out there! Lewis only had to finish 5th to clinch the title. At the start of the race everyone gambled on putting the grooved slicks for most of the race. It was in the dying moments of the race where it got alot scary where it started to rain again. Felipe, Fernando (running 2nd) and Kimi (3rd) drove straight through the pits to change tires. Lewis, who was in constant threat from Sebastian Vettel who was really on his gearbox. While Lewis was pitting, Timo Glock who took 4th place away from Lewis as he drove pass the the start/finish straight. As Lewis and Sebastian went back on the track after the pits. It was Sebastian who had the upper hand and showed everyone how good he is in the rain as what he did in Monza during the Italian Grand Prix where he won it on a wet race. At the final lap particularly the final sector of the lap. Sebastian overtook Lewis when he ran wide to snatch 5th and push lewis back to 6th. That moment everyone was on their heels thinking Lewis is gonna loose it and Felipe will become world champion. That happened in the final few corners of the lap. When Felipe crossed the line to finish 1st, everyone thought that Felipe has done it and is now the world champion. The Massa family was already screaming and shouting for joy inside the Ferrari garage. Only to find out that there was going to be another bullet that's ready to hit their hearts. It was Timo Glock of the Toyota F1 team whom passed Lewis and Sebastian while pitting. Timo Glock passed them because he did not pit and did not change to wet tires. He was using the grooved slick tires to finish the race where it was already raining hard! At the last 3 corners of the circuit Timo Glock was struggling to find grip on the wet track on his Toyota to clime the uphill part of the circuit approaching the last corner. It was at that part where Sebastian and Lewis took back the 4th and 5th position because they had better traction mainly because of their wet tires. When Lewis crossed the line he was deemed 5th and was 1 point ahead of Massa and was deemed the 2008 World Champion. It was then when Felipe was told about it and really felt the pain inside him. On the radio you can hear him cry and say "Thank you guys and so proud of this team" He "thanked" his team for doing a perfect job that weekend. But luck wasn't really on their side as Lewis managed to grab the title.

You could really feel what Felipe felt as he drove pass all the fans cheering for him. It was so warm and was so great for him to have been cheered by his country and for him to win the race. As soon as he reached the "Parc Ferme" he was crying inside his helmet and even took time to reflect to himself before climbing out of his car. Felipe took a very painful hit in his heart knowing that he could have won the title when he crossed the line only to find out seconds after that Lewis still managed to finished 5th and win the title. Felipe vowed to his countrymen, hugged his race engineer ....

Here's a clip of the final lap of the Brazilian GP where Lewis managed to sweep pass by the Toyota of Timo Glcok (White & Red car)

//:: P1 for Felipe!

Yes! and i wanna say that again! YES!!!!! I was so noisy this evening watching the Brazilian Grand Prix from home. I know it's like 12 midnight already but my my my my ohhhhh my what a very nervous qualifying session it was. Massa Took pole for the Brazilian GP followed by Timo Glock on his Toyota who pushed Kimi Raikkonen of to 3rd after capturing 2nd slot when Barged by Timo in the latter part. Lewis will start at the last of the 2nd row of the grid which is at the 4th position with his teammate Heiki on 5th. Clearly the best part about the race tomorrow is that Lewis has Kimi infront of him and has Fernando Alonso directly behind him. If I may say it again, Fernando Alonso would dearly love to see Ferrari and Felipe to win both the Championship and that he has also said that he will be glad to support Felipe and Ferrari to win it. To be honest with you I think Fernando Alonso really now is revealing how he hated what happened last year.

2008 Formula1 Brazilian Grand Prix Qualifying result

For the last 3 years, Ferrari and Felipe has been supreme in Interlagos circuit. Felipe has won the last poles in this circuit since 2006 (Where he won the race also), 2007 (The year when Kimi Raikkonen his teammate has won the 2008 drivers title), and now the 2008 season which really shows how quick he is on this track as if he knows it like the back of his hand.

For me, I think Lewis is really feeling the pressure now. Coming on the circuit as a title leader with 7 points ahead of the next title rival. But I know inside his head. He is still thinking about what happened last year. It was the same story he was leading 7 points off Kimi Raikkonen but still lost it. I'm very confident that the red cars from Italy of Felipe & Kimi will pull away just like last year. What's best is, the both of them are using fresh engines. Where Lewis is using an engine on it's 2nd race already. Not only that it's a bit less on power but it's also less reliable. I do hope he would not finish the race and have a terrible race weekend as is the case of last year.

I'm really excited to watch the Race tomorrow and see Lewis get in trouble again and see Ferrari win another Constructors title and for Felipe to win his 1st ever Drivers title. So I will be out infront of the telly again with my laptop at my side to monitor the lap times of the cars. Pics will follow after the Race.
