The End Of An Era

Michael Shumacher is now done racing in formula one! It's a shame that he didn't place better in this race but from his flat tire early in the race it shows that he still has it :) From dead last and almost a lap down he kept fighting all the way and ended in 4th, He was right on Fisichella but then he seemed to have slowed down drastically in a corner. But soon Fisichella over shot the corner and ran threw the grass allowing shumacher to pass. Another good pass for Michael was when he passed kimi, kimi blocking him and almost touching eachother desperately trying to hold on to 4th. But more importantly Jenson Button came in 3rd from 14th on the grid! It was a great race for him although he pitted rather early and a felt that that took him out but they timed it well and made it back :) He qualified very poorly but just like in Hungary he came from the back and took podium! I wish Honda had a little more camera time threw this race though. Podium for Honda and that puts Honda in 4th for the constructors championship. So the standings are Alonso with the World Championship and Renault with the Constructors Championship. But lets not forget about fellipe massa with his second win, I think he went a little far with the terrible looking racing suit and waving the flag after the race but hey... What can you do... Although the fia could disqualify him for that because I believe that is against the rules. The race was a lot of fun to watch although the director wasn't that great.... Lots of retirements in this race race though. Toyota sadly dropped out of the race after a technical Failure, and the Williams collided with eachother in turn one which broke wings and such. Other then that we had heidfeld which seemed to have lost the rear suspension coming into turn 1. After the race Speed TV did a special broadcast of the memories of 06 and Michael shumachers epic career which I'm sure will be on a torrent site near you for those who don't have speed tv. The coverage was a very touching wrap up of this pass season and the battle between champions. They will also be having the F1 Commentating crew (Hobbs, Varsha, Matchett) on the speed report tonight for the wrap up of the F1 season. And.... That's the fire alarm.... Again ffs this is the 4th time that thing has went off since I've moved here. This is to be continued....And im back, what bs. Everytime its been a false alarm :( Anyways I think thats all for formula one news. In LFS Indy news we have yet another delay The Rendering is taking longer then expected but once that is done (hopfully midweek) we shall put the camera shots together and do the commentary. Soon enough... soon enough. Other then that i have been trying to catching up with my podcasts and still can't wait till i start my own :) Once again if you are interested in being a host of an open wheel podcast please contact me and we can arrange a date :) I believe that is all for today, not a whole lot happening. Thank you for reading, but if your still reading this on anorexicpillow.blogspot.com please rebookmark it as http://www.anorexicpillow.com There I have my huge gallery and podcasts are soon to come. Bye!
