Return of the Red Baron

The rumours have been silenced. It's Official now. 7 time World Champion comes out of retirement for Ferrari. Michael Schumacher returns to F1 There have been many returns in different sports. But this is different. Schumi as he is affectionately called brings high hopes to his fans around the world that finally we might just see a Ferrari victory. The question is will he be at his best and will we be able to see Michael Magic again? May be, May be not. One thing is for sure F1 is going to be exciting again with the return of the Red Baron.

We rely on my mobile phonebook for majority of my contacts.

Monday is when you come to office grumpy most of the while thinking why the weekend got over even if it was a boring one. You look back at articles photos and keep thinking 'how nostalgic'

Silver Arrows and Scarlets are back!

Everyone remembers what happened to Aryton Senna at Imola. I wasn't hooked on to F1 then but still hear people saying it was one of the darkest days of F1. Formula 1 has missed Senna ever since. Within 2 weeks of the Hungarian GP we had the news of one of the young GP2 drivers succumbing to injuries sustained by a loose wheel of the race leader. At the Hungarian GP we had Felippe Massa who was hit by a spring which came loose of the Brawn GP car of Barichello. Massa needed to be operated on and looks like he might miss the remainder of the season. I really liked Massa for fighting back all the time and trying to overshadow Kimi who now looks hopeless in the Scarlet Car although he did manage 2nd on the podium.
