A day of 2 halves
« on: March 15, 2010, 09:59:30 am »
Watched the Bahrain GP, at the beginning of my day, and the review of the ALMS on Motors towards the end.

One was dull, processional, and predictable, OK the ALMS coverage was edited, but it confirmed to me that I no longer need to make an effort to watch the GP. A bit of an epiphany really.

I don't know what was worse, watching the England Scotland match or the GP,  They were both Cr@p.

Its a very dull looking track, I started watching it but went out to "fiddle " with the car after about 20 mins as I coulnt bear the visual tedium!

How did you manage to last 20 minutes, I was out after three laps.

It was not the best race! maybe a case of what might have been. Alonso was catching Vettel and Massa was pretty close at that stage too.

Had Vettel's engine not gone sick it would have been a much more interesting finish.

Some people will tell you that slow is good - and it may be, on some days - but I am here to tell you that fast is better.

Well I wasnt giving it my full attention , I was trying to install a driver for a cable to connect a laptop to my car, failed due to a software problem. I think searching for a driver was more intersting than watching the race!
