Its all true. The new Formula 1 season starts this weekend, and as far as I am concerned, its my religious holiday. I got the weekend off work (I was owed time off anyways). I REALLY cant wait until Sunday!
And the national anthem? The Chain, by Fleetwood Mac. Ask anybody in a developed country and they will recognise it as soon as they hear it, F1 fan or not (as I found out). It can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dtms1IppbPg. Even if F1 isnt your thing, it still sounds ace…
Formula 1 is far superior to Nascar. And they drive in the wet, which takes real guts. And they have done it in a monsoon several times…
But seriously, if you have never watched F1 before, now is the time. Really. The stops have (literally) been pulled out for one of the best seasons ever, as there is no real favourite for the title, with at least 6 contenders with a serious shot at the title, complete with inter-team rivalry. And questions to answer. There is also the return of Schumacher 2009 champ Button moving to the McLaren team with 2008 winner Hamilton, and twice-winner Alonso as Ferrari's new lead driver. And with the ban on refuelling and a bigger points difference for 1st and the rest of the grid, on-track action will be a given. As will accidents, and flaring tempers…
However, there will still be a real SHU issue this week, or this Sunday, to be precise. I have a conveniant gap between watching the Race with fellow fans, and going bowling in the evening. Thing is, I'm still debating on changing the script, as I am none too happy with it.
