Fun F1

Even though he doesn’t smile that much, BMW’s Dr Mario Theissen sure does look a lot like Ned Flanders from the Simpsons…

Nick Heidfeld recently made a comment that I find very important in life in general, not just in F1…

“I don’t stay in the paddock quite as long as I used to… While I’m still one of the last drivers to leave, I often used to dwell on the telemetry data until midnight. After a while, however, you fail to see the wood for the trees and you get too little sleep.”

Now back to your meditation grasshopper..

According to Autosport, Fernando Alonso’s first test with the McLaren Mercedes team was a great success. McLaren did its best to keep a lid on the vital details of the test. In particular, they didn’t fit a “public” transponder to Alonso’s car, so only the team themselves would know his exact laptimes.

However, it seems rival teams were able to work out Alonso’s lap times. So just how well did he go? VERY well!

3rd overall. Just 0.25s behind teammate Lewis Hamilton.

I think Fernando Alonso and actor Adam Goldberg were separated at birth..

Renault have released the radio transcript from the Brazilian Grand Prix this year – the race in which they claimed both the drivers and constructors championships. Fernando Alonso showed quite a bit of dislike toward Ferrari, wishing success to any team that isn’t red… It’s quite funny…

ALO: This was the last race with you guys kamagra oral jelly. It was the final race, and we have won both championships again. Thank your for all these years, it has been a pleasure for me to work with you with this success, and I wish you the best for the future.

PS: We wish you the best too Fernando.

ALO: As long as the car is not red, I wish you the best!

ALO – Fernando Alonso, PS – Pat Symonds

I just hope Fernando hasn’t put a jinx on himself as his McLaren may be predominantly red next year!
