The Safety Car
Well, the F1 was already over, but the excitement has only begin to diminish slightly. It is really difficult to forget the very memorable F1 night race. It did not even matter if I was only holding a "walk about" pass. The experience was just fantastic!!!
And of course, I was very disappointed that Ferrari had failed to make a mark at this inaugural event, but I was very excited that Alonso, who now races with Renault, made history and headlines by being the champion for this race!!! Yes, the driver who made the fastest lap during first practice session, had an auguish engine problem during qualifying, and starting from position 15 on actual race day and eventually waving to all the spectators when he won!!! Amazing!!! So, congratulations to Mr Alonso.
As for the rest of the people, who turn up to the event as spectators, what can I say?? Almost everyone I knew who attended the event, had good experiences. While it is true that watching the race on TV is much better than watching it at the actual venue, there is the atmosphere which is unimaginable unless one is there themselves to feel it.
I had a good time at the F1 village, seeing the cars going at speeds which is only comparable to our blinking speed, the safety cars, the sounds of the racing cars, the smell of the rubber tyres as they were burnt out due to friction, the fences and the lights. Amazing!!!
So, that means I will most probably attend the event again next year. Yes, I should be attending it again next year.
