New Season

No not the start of British Summer Time, rather the start of the new F1 season in Australia.

Several changes have been put into place for this new season in part to try and stop the sport being so expensive, and of course F1 has arrived back home on the BBC.  Great to get coverage without ad breaks spoiling it especially with the first race being so exciting, even if the ending behind the safety car was a bit of a damp squib.

It would appeared that there is a good crop of new young drivers coming up, but their inexperience showed and it was the experienced hands of Button and  Barrichello that brought home the top two podium places for the newbies on the block Brawn.  That is if anyone could ever call Ross Brawn with all his years of F1 experience a newbie.

If this race was anything to go by the changes that have been made are all for the better, on a street circuit were overtaking has been a thing of the past there was plenty of action and excellent overtaking.  I just hope that the meeting on the 16th of April doesn’t change that!

We had taken to listening to the radio 5live coverage of the races as we watched the ITV pictures so that we didn’t miss what was happening during the ad breaks and we continued to do so, however we did also watch and listen to the BBC’s pre and post dialogue and I have two things to say about it – Eddie Jordan might know about F1, but he isn’t good on the TV and a couple of times was downright rude; and while there was obviously some nerves about, the presentation was better than ITV’s.

It looks like this year the championship for both drivers and constructors could be wide open, and that can only be good for F1.  Roll on next week and Malaysia.

Too Much Excitement

Those of you who know me will think that I am referring to Lewis Hamilton, leaving it to the very end before finally clinching the F1 Driver Championship.  Well yes that was exciting, would he manage to overtake Vettle and regain that vital 5th place, the Ferrari garage were obviously oblivious to the fact that Glock, on the wrong tyres with the rain finally falling and nogrip, had been overtaken by both of them and thought that as Vettle crossed the line in front of Lewis the championship belonged to Massa.  It didn’t though, Lewis had achieved what he missed out on in his rookie year.

No there was other excitement in the Rectory last night and this was of a differing kind.  Spiders do not belong in beds, and certainly not in ones I am going to sleep in, however that excitement was short lived as Hubby dealt with the intruder, he also has temporarily dealt with the one that caused the most excitement. 

As I sat in the living room finishing my book for the Book Group later today something caught the corner of my eye, I froze it was too quick and too big for a spider.  Another movement and a tiny mouse scurried across the floor and dived under the fire.  We have never had mice in the Rectory before and I am assuming that the sudden turn from the unseasonal warm to cold weather had bought about it’s appearance.  Gloves, a torch and a wine cork later the rodent was blocked from coming back out of the hole it had found were the gas pipe comes in.  Now a trip to B&Q is needed to buy expanding foam, to fill the hole on a permanent basis, a mousetrap in case this one was not alone and one of those sonic things that have worked so well down at the church at keeping the mice at bay – they apparently work on spiders too so that could be a double whammy.  A check round the house and no signs of mouse activity anywhere could be found so the hope is this was its first and last appearance, however we do also need to work out how it might have got into the house in the first place, the gas pipe hole doesn’t go directly outside, and while I don’t want mice inside the house I don’t want them scurrying about the walls either! 

As I said too much excitement!

Monza

Sebastian Vettel well deserved his win at Monza yesterday, he drove a solid and sound race after driving magnificently at qualifying to start the race on pole position.  During the race and qualifying on Saturday he proved that he is going to be a name to be reckoned with, next year he will drive for Red Bull, hopefully they will improve their car over the winter.  The weather once again played it’s part and the question which will remain unanswered is, what place would Hamilton finished up in if the predicted rain had actually fallen?  Just as in qualifying he ended up on the wrong tyres at the wrong time.

As we head towards Singapore and F1′s first night race the championship is wide open, we are all set for yet another thrilling climax to this years F1 calender.

Spa

No not the kind of Spa were you get a days pampering but Spa Francorchampswere the Belgium Grand Prix was held yesterday.

Spa is a drivers circuit were the weather can, and usually does play a part, this year was no exception rain in the closing laps made for a thrilling race.  I feel for Kimmi, he had returned to form and showed his team mate that he wasn’t to be written off just yet leading for most of the race, however he ended up in the wall as the Ferrari’s proved yet again they struggle in the wet.  The dilemma of whether or not to make mad dash and change to wet weather tyres meant that until the chequered flag fell it was going to be unclear as to who would finish never mind win.  Hamilton and Massa stuck to the slick tyres and crept around the final lap in 1st and 2nd places making it seem more like a parade lap rather than the end of a race, while Heidfled along with Alonso having changed tyres drove the final lap and came home fast crossing the line in third and fourth respectively.  But that wasn’t to be the end of it, an end which started when the rain started to fall and McLaren showed once again that it was more surefooted in such conditions than the Ferrari’s.

With the weather playing into Hamilton’s hands he had cut down Kimmi’s lead, till he was right behind him as they approached the Bus Stop chicane, Lewis saw a chance to get Kimmi on the inside and made his move, Kimmi cut him off and Lewis having nowhere else to go cut across the safety area of the chicane, rejoining the race track in front of Kimmi, Lewis let Kimmi back into first place immediately, we were on the edge of our seats.  The race up the pit straight was electrifying as both cars jumped all over the track looking to either block or pass, by the first corner Lewis had clearly passed Kimmi, but Kimmi hadn’t given up and still fighting hard tapped him, it was vintage F1 racing.  However the FIA stewards decided they didn’t like it; Hamilton, they ruled, gained an advantage by cutting across the chicane at the Bus Stop, I would love to know where they thought he should have gone.  Now I think their decsion is debatable, but even if I was to agree with the Stewards on their assumption, the only person who was disadvantaged by the move was Kimmi, who was soon to be overtaken by Massa and then end up in the wall after a spin with on body else involved.  The stewards decided, however that Lewis should be given a 25 second penalty meaning he ended up in 3rd rather than 1st.   Gone are the days, to would appear, when race results were final and any punishment was metered out in the subsequent race with a grid place drop.  It saddens me greatly that F1 is now being decided in back rooms by nameless people who don’t have to account for their actions, not the drivers out on the track, no wonder more and more races are turning into processions if exciting, driving is going to be penalised.

Silverstone Weekend

The sun was splitting the skies on Friday as the first round of practices took place; we started off at Abbey then changed to sitting in various Luffield stands before we were burned to a crisp.  The Ferraris’ were clearly struggling even in the dry of practice, but were they just playing their cards close to their chests, we weren’t sure, and I don’t think anyone else other than Ferrari was either.

In the distance we saw the clouds rise signaling to us were Massa had crashed off, it turned out not to be a good weekend for him at all, he spent most of Sunday doing practices to be a ballet dancer doing pirouettes in the wet.

In-between Friday’s practice sessions we were entertained by the Red Devils and the Formula BMW’s Qualifying session, no pictures of the BMW’s we were eating at that point and the camera was away, but here is one of the Red Devils.

At this point it is worth saying that with the roar of the cars you can’t hear the public address system so it is worth ever penny in hiring a Kangaroo TV, with it you have a choice of commentaries and can also get other information like lap times which while they appear on the large TV’s are impossible to read without a pair of binoculars.  We certainly wouldn’t go to see a race again without pre-booking ours.

As the second practice session began and the bright sun continued I had decided to play about with the settings on my camera, it turned out not to be a great idea, once we viewed the shots later but even in black and white you can see the light dancing off the McLaren’s chrome, while the other cars all shone from the polishing that had obviously gone on before.

Practice session over the cars headed back into the pits, we waited around for a bit not wanting to get caught up in all the traffic that was leaving watching dozens of Porsche zoom round the track not knowing the excitement that they would bring further into the weekend.

Saturday and again bright sunshine however there was the threat of rain and Saturday’s practice session began somewhat slowly.  Again we had decided to head for the Luffield stands, as you get to see a big sweep of the track, we had plans for the afternoon and qualifying, and for the race itself our seats were in Woodcote.

Again the Ferrari’s were weren’t looking great and it might have only been a practice session but the with DC, just having just announced his retirement, the crowd were behind him, willing him on to end his final British Grand Prix with a flourish so as he undertook a struggling Ferrari the cheers went up, practice session or not.

The McLaren’s, Red Bulls and Toyota’s were all looking good and the makings of a promising Qualifying were on the cards.  This time it was Blue Eagles Helicopter Display Team and Porsche Qualifying that were to entertain us during the F1 break, we watched the Blue Eagles who were spectacular and made our move to the Pit Straight for qualifying.

As we made our way to our new vantage point the rain started, slow big fat drops, we weren’t the only ones who had decided that this was were to see qualifying from and it took us a while to find a couple of empty seats opposite the Renault and BMW garages.  The noise in the pit straight was even louder than it had been round at Luffield and we were both glad that we had our ear defenders and the trusty Kangaroo TV.   There were a few more drops of rain and a strong wind blowing the pit lane opened Q3 was underway but no one made a move.

Suddenly there was movement in front of us and tyre blankets came off as the BMW garage sprung into life.

Soon the roar of F1 engines were filling the Pit Straight as other cars left to join the circuit, others returned back to the garages for tweaking, and some zoomed passed trying to make their laps count and get into the next stage.  The safety fencing made it hard to get clear pictures, however the pit lane was clear to see reflected it the windows above, so I was able to capture this picture as the pit crew wheeled Massa back into his garage, avoiding the other traffic.

During Qualifying the rain was on and then off again and the wind raced the cars down the Pit Straight, our Kangaroo TV kept us informed of the times and who was in, who was out, and during all three sessions all too soon it was all over.  This picture of Alonso crossing the line and making it on to 6th on the grid is for *M* a big Alonso fan, well someone has to be!

 

The starting grid was decided with Heikki getting pole and Mark Webber getting the well deserved second spot on the front row.  Kimmi had shown that maybe the Ferrari’s were hiding something getting third and Lewis was in 4th, but there was talk of rain for the race the following day so nobody was too bothered about that.  Massa had continued his bad weekend struggling to get into the top 10 but finally managing 9th, while Heidfeld and Alonso in 5th and 6th respectively were both looking like they could end the race further up the field.

We made the long walk back to the car, planning the following day and wondering how easy it was going to be to get back to our hotel.  It turned out that again we had timed it well tomorrow however would be a very different story.

We awoke early and travelled down a surprisingly quiet A43, shut to all but Grand Prix traffic to arrive at Silverstone and discover that the parking was no better than it had been the past two days despite the fact we had forked out £20 for a parking ticket.  Now I know that the drivers love the circuit and that the fans love the spectacle of Silverstone but the parking, the toilets (at one point I had to wait in a queue for 30 minutes), the poor quality overpriced drinks and food, bad seating, and the bad organization overall, have no doubt been a major factor in Silverstone loosing the British Grand Prix.  Donnington have a lot of lessons they could learn from Silverstone’s mistakes, I just hope they have the time to put a better experience into place for those who spend their hard earned money on supporting the sport they love.  As coincidence would have it we had actually stopped off at Donnington on the way down to see the F1 collection, so it was clear to us how much work they have in front of them.

We sat in the car watching others arrive, including those who did not have a parking ticket and ate our breakfast of Bucks Fizz and smoked salmon, before loading ourselves up with what we would need for the day and making the 2 mile hike to our seats.  This time we were in Woodcote with a view of the complex and a view down the pit lane and pit straight.  It was raining heavily and despite being under cover the wind was whipping the rain back to were we sat, those on the 10 rows in front of us were getting as wet as those who were in the terraces.

The racing started at 8:30am with the BMW’s but due to the weather they got a timed race rather than their full 13 laps, the GP2 race was exciting to the end with plenty of yellow flags and a race to the chequered flag finally received by Bruno Senna.  Then came the Porsche Super Cup and more rain, more excitement, more yellow flags, for most of the drivers in these three races racing in the rain was something new to them and they gave us plenty of excitement.  The Porsche Super Cup had the crowd on its feet as the first and second place went to Brits, Edwards first and under a second behind Watts.  Excitement was mounting was there going to be another Brit or two, or even three on the podium soon?

Most of the F1 drivers braved the rain for the drivers’ track parade on the back of a flat bed; Lewis and DC were lapping up the cheers and air horns as they pushed the brollys aside.

Next came the demonstration laps and the Red Arrows, most of which I missed as I stood in a queue for 30 minutes, but I did arrive back just in time to see the Red Arrows fly over the Pit Straight unable to complete the most dangerous part of their display because of the bad weather.

The rain continued on and off as the start of the race approached, but as the cars started to form it had stopped, although the track was still very wet and as they set off on their parade lap the crews rushing back to their garages were nearly swallowed up in the cloud of spray.  One by one the cars passed by us as they formed up on the grid for the start of the race, as DC passed I snapped this picture, as it turned out it was to be the last time he passed us, as he managed to spin off not even completing one lap of his final British Grand Prix.

The grid was all lined up the red lights were on the waiting was nearly over.

Then they were off and the jostling for position started as the clouds of spray prevented us from seeing them turn into Copse but the faithful Kangaroo TV let us see that Lewis had jumped up to second.

As Heikki and Lewis sped passed us to complete the first lap the Red Bulls race was over.  While a lot was lacking in the organisation at Silverstone, the one thing that they have got down to pat is the track marshals, throughout the weekend they were quickly on the scene recovering misplaced cars and helping others back onto the race track.  It was down to their hard work that there wasn’t a safety car during the race.

Despite the rain having stopped and us being 10 rows back the spray from the cars as they whizzed passed was reaching us, but we didn’t mind as next time around it was Lewis who was in the lead, unfortunately for Mark Webber his promising pole position had not borne fruit and he was now way down the field with Heikki and Kimmi on Lewis’ tail.

The excitement continued with the noise of the crowd competing with the noise of the engines as the cars raced passed.  The field stretches out pretty quickly and soon it was a constant stream of cars passing us, cheers went up every time a passing move happened, gasps every time someone spun on the fast drying track, Massa was by far the chief one doing that.  Soon Kimmi had got passed Heikki and cars started to dive into the pits for the first round of pit stops.  Lewis and Kimmi appeared from under the bridge and wiggled there way round the complex both of them struggling round Woodcote bend and then together they headed down the pit lane to their waiting crews.

This was now the race to watch, who would emerge first, we could see Kimmi’s team get to work as Lewis continued further down the pit lane to the McLaren garage and for what seemed like minutes rather than seconds, both their red lights flashed as the cars sat motionless.

Kimmi was the first to move, which was no surprise, but was Lewis going to get out before Kimmi reached him, we couldn’t see for sure, again Kangaroo TV came to the rescue (no we aren’t on some kind of commission from them) and we could see that Lewis was still ahead gambling with new tyres, while Kimmi’s gamble was that there would be no more rain and his intermediates would soon turn into slicks and out perform the McLaren on the drying circuit.
For a while it looked as if Kimmi’s gamble had paid off, but soon the rain began again and as he fell back down the field and Massa also struggled on unchanged tyres Kimmi had to return to the pits and change his tyres to try and rescue something from the race.

Jason had spun off in nearly the exact same spot as DC had and the chance of another British one two had passed, but there was still Lewis leading the pack.  The crowd was going crazy not only for Lewis as is lead grew lap after lap but also for that all time favourite Rubens Barrichello who had gambled on the severe wets and was moving up the field in leaps and bounds, over taking Lewis to un-lap himself and continuing to climb his way up the field.
The cameras were abandoned as the race passed in what seemed like a flash, Massa continued to struggle, the BMW team put in a good performance but never set the crowd alight like some of the other driving, Alonso kept on looking as if he was keeping something back and would suddenly storm up the field and Trulli kept on showing those glimpses of genius that never quite amount to anything.  Before we knew it Lewis was on his final lap having overtaken everyone bar the drivers he would be sharing the podium with.  As he entered the complex for the final time everyone was on their feet, the cheers the applause the air horns so loud that surely he must have been able to hear it above the roar of his engine inches away from him.  Lewis had done it in style, and with the help of that which is often most moaned about the British weather.  The crowd cheered Nick home to 2nd place over a minute later and where back on their feet to welcome Rubens home for a well deserved 3rd place.
If the sound of Lewis on his final lap and his way back to the pits had been loud it was nothing compared to the sound as he mounted the podium and soon the champagne was arching its way onto the crews below.

We decided that we would follow the pattern of the past two days and watch the extra race, this time the Historic Saloon Car Challenge, giving others time to leave, the sun was now out again and with many people having left we passed a very pleasant hour.  During that race and over at least the next two hours the sky was buzzing with helicopters ferrying the ‘great and good’ out of Silverstone, there was a constant stream with one taking off at least every minute if not more frequently.  Then it was the long walk back to the car, we could see people queued up on the road as we crossed over them but the car parks were looking quiet so we were hopeful that we wouldn’t have to wait too long, how wrong we were.  Firstly because it was busy they decided to shut some of the exits, making those which were open even busier, it took us an hour just to get out of Silverstone, then another hour to get along the first section of the A43, meanwhile while we sat in a car park, the other half of the A43 which had been closed for Silverstone traffic had only a few cars occasionally travelling along it!!!  Eventually I got out the map and we travelled down some pretty country roads past queues of Silverstone traffic which had exited another way and were now being sent down to join the car park which we had just left and was supposed to be the way out.  I have never experienced such bad traffic management for an event as I experienced at Silverstone, and I have been to events which involved far more cars, with lesser road networks surrounding them, if nothing else is improved this is something that Donnington need to get right.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thrills And Spills

The Canadian Grand Prix didn’t need the anticipated rain to make the race enthralling and the result was one very few people would have predicted.  No Ferrari’s, no McLaren’s represented on the podium and but a very surprised DC in third with Kubica finally getting the win his driving had been threatening and Heidfeld giving BMW the ‘one two’.

The safety car once again had an impact on the race.  Once the pit lane was opened Massa discovered having come in for fuel they weren’t ready for him and he had to make another stop putting paid to his race, however he fought back and gave us some great overtaking on a circuit which didn’t break up as much as qualifying had led us to believe it might.  Lewis made a big mistake, yes his pit crew should have alerted him, but at the end of the day he was the one behind the wheel and it would appear realised too late that Kimi was stationary because the pit light was red, with nowhere else to go he piled into the back of him and almost at once Rosberg seemed to do a similar thing shunting Lewis, both of them will pay the price at the next race, while Canada was over for Kimmi and Lewis.  Kubica was lucky missing the bumper cars and soon he took advantage building up a lead large enough to make a final splash and dash pit stop and returning to the track in front of the rest of the pack most of which had earlier heavily fueled to the end of the race.  DC’s final laps were nail biting as we heard the team radio firstly warn him about his brakes and then his engine, but his experience paid off as he nursed the car home, although it was noticeable that he couldn’t nurse it as far as the winner enclosure!

For now Canada has put a new twist on the championship, could BMW beat Ferrari in the consturctors championship?  I doubt it, but they are beginning to look like more like competition for them than McLaren this year.  Will Kubica be able to hold on to his lead at the head of the drivers championship?  It wont be easy.  Will Lewis fall further down the table?  Highly possible is he doesn’t concentrate more.  Will Kimmi make a late surge?  Highly likely, his favoured circuits are still to come.  Will Massa finally manage to show he is more than a second seat driver?  He just could.  As for Heildfeld he is probably loosing touch but as Canada has shown anything is possible with F1 and with the season not even having reached his half way point it is probably too early to discount him either.

Oh and just to wind up a fantastic F1 weekend our tickets for Silverstone finally arrived!

Two Sides

Life has been extremely busy of late, I have hardly had time to procrastinate never mind blog but there is light and a bit of space coming onto focus on the horizon.  So what you may be wondering has been keeping me busy.  Well it has on the whole been a times of the good and the bad.

Daughter finally managed to find a new flat and move in, had only just got used to her being around again and now have to go through the whole missing her being around again.  The travelling to work and university was just too much so I suppose in the bigger picture the good outweighs the bad.

The 12 months snagging list has been drawn out for the re-development, yes it has really been over a year since the build was completed and handed over, however there are still things that have never been completed and still other things that haven’t been completed satisfactory.  The good is that the list is slowly getting shorter, the bad is two fold, firstly that I don’t see any chance of the list being completed by the end of June as promised as secondly every time they fix something they either discover or create another thing to add to the list.  I have long been waiting to post a picture of our lovely new glass doors, however they still haven’t completed the surrounding area so I am afraid if you want to see them then you will have to just come along – this Sunday services at 10:30am and 6:30pm.

I have also been spending a lot of time hanging around waiting for deliveries which should be good; not the hanging around but the actual item being delivered; only to discover that the wrong thing as yet again been sent.

Of course no run down of the last fortnight or so would be complete without mention of the F1 at Monaco.  Lewis did well especially as it has since emerged that he had a puncture for the final two laps, the race for the drivers championship is wide open.  I felt for Sutil would have loved to see him on the podium, hopefully his performance will mark more good races for him to come and a chance of a seat in one of the major teams in the future.  The weather produced what, for me at least, as to be the race of the season so far.

Thursday evening of this week saw the annual trip over to St Ninian’s Polloksheilds for the pre-synod meeting.  I used to know the congregation reasonably well as I started my ordained life in a next door parish, as soon as I stepped into the building I was taken by how light the sanctuary area now was, it has been cleaned to great effect recently, the walls were painted some time ago and the building is no longer a gloomy place to go into.  The meeting however gave a glimpse that General Synod itself might get gloomy, there are several items which people hold varying views on, and it will be up to the person in the chair to stop Synod getting too gloomy.  Kelvin on his blog has a run down on the items.

The Wednesday evening group have come to the end of their 4 Studies and a Party and I am happy to report that that has proved nothing but good, good, good.  I did have apprehensions at the start but they were quickly proved to be unfounded and in a single voice those who attended the studies have been singing their praises and eager to take the next step.  The next step however is the joint vestry day with St Paul and St John, Monklands, next Saturday, only after that can the two groups, the Wednesday group and St Mark’s Vestry, get together and cover the final items, identifying our Mission Field and deciding on an event to launch into it.  This is not something that will happen over night, and it is hoped that before the blue touch paper is lit at least one other group will have travelled through the joys of 4 Studies and a Party.  After all the stuff to do with the re-development which while necessary was not what I went forward for ordination for, it is good to finally be getting on with something that I was, of course the first thing we would have discovered had the work not been done was that we needed to do the work!

We did manage to get away for the Bank Holiday down to sunny Dumfrieshire, were according to at least one of the local hotels St John’s is the local English Episcopal Church!  Photos will follow next week of two castles and an abbey once I have downloaded them, for now we are heading off to Edinburgh and the Taste of Festival, which we missed last year as I had just come out of hospital after my op, but BB and ‘K’ enjoyed in our place, so no doubt I you will hear about that at some point next week too.

Bahrain

Well yesterdays GP in Bahrain despite its initial excitement turned out to be a bit of a procession, still think that Massa should have been penalised for ignoring the yellow flag during qualifying, and would love to know just what caused Hamilton to run up the back of Alonso.  However the driver’s championship is being kept wide open this year and that can only be a good thing for F1, it is possible for anyone of 6 people to be leading the championship in three weeks time.

New Starts

Saturday saw the start of a new chapter in the history of the charges of St Cuthbert, Cambuslang and St Andrew, Uddingston when the congregations and people from across the diocese gathered to welcome Rosemary as their new priest a joyous occasion, although somewhat unusual to be celebrating in a piskie church without a glass of wine!

While today saw another new start of a different kind. 

At 3:30am the alarm woke us from our slumber to alert us that the 2008 F1 season was about to begin down under in Melbourne.  There have been several changes in the rules, all of which are welcome in my book, especially the loss of traction and launch controls, now they really are driving not just racing a computer.  The race itself was fantastic despite being interrupted three times for the safety car, in fact with the crashes, thrills and spills it was much more like the races I that got me interested in F1 in the first place than the 50-60 parade laps F1 had turned into in more recent years.  If this first race is anything to go by we will be in for a thrilling and unpredictable season, and it looks like the new boys will be giving the old timers a run for their money, just a shame that the final safety car denied Kovalainen a better place after such a good drive and Bourdais was denied a better place on his debut when his Ferrari engine let him down.

Still Just Out Of Reach

There is no doubt in my mind, and I am sure in the mind of many other F1 fans, that Lewis Hamilton is extremely talented, however yesterday proved that talent is not enough.  Those tyres should have been changed earlier, okay so McLaren are holding up their hands and saying it was their fault, but a more experienced driver would have insisted on coming in as soon as their performance dropped and those with lesser cars overtook with such ease.  Hubby and I were screaming at the TV for him to come in and change them, but we weren’t screaming loud enough as Lewis obviously didn’t hear us!  However, that being said, everything is all set now for an exciting final race to the season in Brazil. 

Lewis could still win the championship, and I hope he does, but so could Alonso and Kimi.  Kimi has shown he would be a deserving champion, he is talented and experienced and doesn’t have hissy turns unlike some drivers - just a shame he drives a Ferrari.  Then there is Alonso, he has shown us another side of his character this year, and not an endearing one.  I would be disappointed to see him clinching the championship his behaviour and attitude this season has been more akin to a spoilt 5 year old than an F1 champion.

Who will it be, we will know in just under two weeks.
