itv.com/f1 - Hamilton puts heartbreak behind him

I, along with a lot of British F1 fans spent most of the morning after the race swearing at things.  A simple error of judgement took our boy out of the race, a race which looked certain to secure Hamilton his first (of a hopeful many) Grand Prix Championship in his rookie season.

lewis Total kudos to Hamilton’s attitude, he appears to have shrugged it off as ‘one of those things’, he took time to publicly  praise his team.  Which is more than can be said of Alonso, despite still being in the running, continued to team-bash and question the integrity of McLaren.  What a fool.

So, all eyes on Brazil for the final decider, I for one hope that Hamilton not only gets the championship but also secures it with a race win!

Onwards

Well, back in the UK and feeling pretty damn good about it.  I got my old job back and started on Thursday, faced a fair few friendly but very confused old friends but on the whole i have been welcomed back and all is returning to normal.  However i really am glad it’s the weekend, this past week has been tiring in the extreme and I need to reset.

mgzsMy other news is that I have decided to stop commuting by motorcycle, not only is it fairly boring (not my idea of good biking) but it’s also just getting too dangerous (or maybe I am getting too old).  So I have bought a car, a nice, fairly young MG ZS. Perhaps not the most WOW car but I think it looks good and it’s comfy, well equipped and fairly fuel efficient.  I’ll jot down a review on it in a few days when I have more of a chance to get some more pictures and drive it a bit ;)

So onto the weekend, my kids are over which will be fun, and the F1 GP is on, the penultimate round, and if Lewis Hamilton can get into the points AND beat Alonso then he will become the first rookie F1 world champion ever and he’s a Brit!

Exciting stuff!
