Day 278: A Long Day With A Disappointment
The day has stretched out ton an incredible length. Not sure why. However, I’ve not really managed to get much done. I began by not getting up for the Korean Grand Prix qualifying on purpose. I was far too tired and generally when I’ve done that in the past, it’s made waking up early for […]

Day 251: Another Dull Race, Another Busy Day, A Big Realisation
I’m not sure whether Sebastian Vettel‘s dominance of Formula One at the moment is good for it or not, but it is leading to dull races. Sure there was a fair amount of overtaking in Italy today, but nobody could possibly challenge for the lead at any stage. He has now won as many Grands […]
