F1 is gonna blast off on Sunday

If Excitement has another name then it would be F1. Life has no value in the circuit,all the thing matters most is podium finish. This year I hope the excitement will not fade due to recession.

The F1 season is gonna blast off from 29-Mar-2009 at Albert Park,Melbourne,Australia. New cars,new year all gonna drive us crazy. My favorite would be always Kimi Raikkonen ,but I'm looking forward to Red Bull's driver Sebastian vettel ,a prolific driver who impressed me a lot last year.It's gonna be lots of fun.



When I was surfing the net came across this good site about F1. I found it different. It got the circuit guide animation which gives us the idea about the circuit.Just have a look at the site

KERS in F1-2009:

To make the race more exciting there are few changes given by FIA. Right from tires to engine there are changes which can bring excitement to racing. The change that I’m looking in 2009 is KERS.

KERS is an abbreviation for Kinetic Energy Recovery System. As the energy is getting wasted while breaking lead to degradation in performance of the car. KERS allows car to store the kinetic energy which get releases while breaking.

“The kinetic energy will be stored in a flywheel or an electrical battery and then made available to the driver, in set amounts per lap, via a ‘boost button’ on the steering wheel.” posted in www.formula1.com

Vettel, the hero of the Brazilian race

An unbelievable Sunday which the F1 world would never forget. A nerve stopping rce which would nearly stopp ed the heart to beat.

Sao Paulo, Brazil has been in limelight for this weekend as it’s the venue for the ultimatum race for the world champion.

On Saturday Felipe Massa had set the qualifiers to his favor by riding the fastest lap ,took the pole position and the Brazilians were all in cloud number nine as their hero was ready to make a history in the home.

Sunday, the race day: It was swarm of people everywhere to see the unforgettable race that they never had imagined. The race was delayed by 10 minutes as rain started pouring down. All cars were in the pit to change the tires as the tract became wet. Then the five reds were illuminated to begin the race. Massa was leading the race from the front as Hamilton pushed hard to keep him in the fifth position. Laps were dropping down as still Hamilton in the fifth position.

Vettel (Toro Rosso), I would call him as the hero of the race as he was in second position scared the Brazilian driver Massa ,by pushing harder than no would ever imagined. But Massa kept his cool and he didn’t allow Vettel to pass him.

When there were less than 10 laps to go Massa leads the race with Alonso and Kimi behind him respectively. Hamilton was in fourth as Glock and Vettel were behind him. Glock went to fourth position as Hamilton went to a pit stop to change the tires as the rain started pouring down again. Even though Hamilton was safe as he maintained the fifth position to become the world champion.

Vettel ,an unbelievable driver overtook Hamilton when one lap to go pushed Hamilton to sixth position. As everything had been set for Massa to be the world champion, the twist in the tale of the race happened.

An unbelievable last 30 seconds that made people numb and even made Massa shed tears and left him emotional. Massa punched the air as he crossed the chequer flag. The crowd and the Ferrari team rejoiced as Massa won the race and Hamilton was still in the fifth position. Alonso came second , kimi was third,Vettel fourth and then the drama happened. Glock stayed slow allowed Hamilton to finish in the fifth position.

The drama made Hamilton the youngest driver ever to became the F1 world champion.He deserved to be the world champion.

Wimbledon final.
Tennis never could have been as fascinating as like this to me before. With an inevitable thought of Roger Federer would be the champion I sat in front of the TV on Sunday evening. My thoughts drowned as Rafael Nadal took the lead in first two sets. Suddenly the impossible seems possible to Nadal.


Even though I did not lose, the hope and I started watching the third set, which would have been the end of Federer’s reign. However, it went on to a tiebreaker and Federer took the third set, which brought springs into my hope.

The thrills and excitements continued in fourth set when Federer started fighting hard to retain his Wimbledon crown. However, the Spaniard was really on top of his form as he smashed the ball to every corner of the court, which made Federer to work hard for his games. A nerve breaking tiebreaker in which Federer had dealt in aces to get back into the match.




The match went on to the decider and final set of the match as I kept myself from sleeping. Federer was never to ready to give up his crown to his rival. However, the game in which Nadal dominated the fifth set was very close but Federer was not good enough to make it.

Australian Open 2008

 Australian open, the first grand slam tournament for the year 2008 had its great end yesterday.

 Thrills, excitements, disappointments and I do not have any more words to explain. Yes, that was how the two weeks gone.

 Top seeds like Roger Federer, Nadal and Henin stumbled in this tournament.  We have a new men and women Australian open champion for 2008. Apart from that, we have witnessed other new players rising on the horizon and that is a good sign for the forthcoming tournaments.
 
 The Serbian man Novak Djokovic won the men's title and the Russian woman Maria sharapova won the women's title.

Champion and the champion in waiting:
 The 2008 Australian open final was one of the greatest matches ever played in the history of tennis. Ever since Federer emerged as number one player, we have seen him on all the Grand slam tournaments final and he won most of them.

 Because of the stumbling of top seeds, yesterday's final match between Djokovic and Tsonga was a quite thrilling one. The match lasted for 3 hours and it went up to four sets.

 Tsonga who took the first set and he was ready to knock out the third seed Novak Djokovic. However, the third seeded quickly got up from his fall. He took the next three sets and became a champion.

 During the presentation, they announced Djokovic as the champion and Tsonga the French man as the "champion in waiting". Yes, it was really a true statement. The kind of energy and attitude he has shown on the match was awesome. Truly, he has a great future ahead.
