This Weekend @ Sepang F1

I was a F1 racing fans during the secondary school years. You know basically during that time I was really crazy about a lot of sports, example from NBA, Tennis, Football, Badminton, even SEA Games or Asia Game occasionally and of course Formula One Racing. Might not know how to play all of them but certainly could tell a hell lot of things out of them.

So that period was between the post Mika Hakiknen era and the starting of domination for Michael Schumacher and his Ferrari team. And that was also when I started losing contact from Formula One news because I just don't like any domination in sports as it makes my feel boring. The same theory can be applied to the domination of Roger Federer in Tennis tour before players like Rafael Nadal and Novak Djokovic emerged. =P

It is a shame that being a Formula One fans or so call used to be, I have never been to the circuit to watch it Live despite the race has been organised for 12 years already. Living in the city of Cyberjaya, everytime when we are making trips to LCCT, we will surely pass by the circuit, however we will never enter as the circuit looks dull and death during normal days.

And also ever since Gamma year, Julian has been asking me to go for it together but I just couldn't find the time to do so as I was kinda tied up with campus activities at those period. But now at my Final year and also the mid-term break, I know it is again a now or never a long long time to be scenario. So after moments of discussion on the seating and the price, finally we decided to purchase the ticket 3 months ago and have been anticipating the day to come ever since then.

So this is it, the 2011 Sepang Malaysian Grand Prix has just ended and we were there for both Saturday and Sunday. Went for the Qualifying session to survey around the area and also the atmosphere but nothing can be compared to today's Race Day scenario  The people, the showgirls, the cars, the engine sounds, the cameras, they just boiled your emotion up perfectly. It is true that I have never watch a Formula One race anymore since secondary school days although I do still keep track with the results annually (just the Championship result only  =.=). But it was all just for the sake of knowing. Being there to the circuit and standing along with the crowd cheering for passing by cars, that feeling is just awesome.

And one more thing, they say Formula One racings are rich people's game and I can't be more agree on it. Everything selling beyond the entrance gate was jacked up at least like 2 or 3 times more expensive than you can find them during other normal days. Especially the food and drinks I have to say. Bought some souvenirs and is already declariing bankrupt for this month. Time to use the emergency fund forcely... >.<..

More photos will be up once I have finished off my draft lists or you can check out my facebook photos for the album which should be up in 1 week time. No description though.

And yea, after disappearing from the Formula One circuit for so many years, I don't have any favourite racer at the moment. So you can't say that I am rooting for Sebastian Vettel or Lewis Hamilton or even Fernando Alonso (These 3 are the most popular one based on my observation over the weekend) because I just love them all. Peace. =)
