We'll know after the practice sessions

Got in a decent 90mins of tennis today. Not getting the cross-court backhand rite, while the down-the-line and inside-out are working well. Strange as the cross-court is the natural shot. Need to work on it. Also, looks like the serve will need some work. Not middling it yet and there isnt any pace on it.

Mean while my advisor is havin fun at my expense. But well, am happy 2 amuse u. Dudette and all...

F1...
Barri looks pretty confident of the F2005. Schumi is just 2 modest to give away anything. But this race should give an insight into what this yr will turn into w.r.t. Ferrari. All depends on the debut of the F2005. Bridgestone seem to be confident. Sounds like they've done their homework rite. All shalt be known after tomorrows practice session times.
BTW its been such a long time since we had a wet race. Schumi is just brilliant in the wet. Indy 2003 was the last wet race i think and thats what turned around the championship 4 him.

Weary legs

Had a nice 2 hrs of tennis. Am in the zone on my forehand. Backhand is also spot on but have to work on getting it to change direction. Also need to work on the footwork... a little iffy at the moment. May b i need to work on my lower body in the gym coz the legs felt a bit weary.

F1...
Schumi is definitely feeling the heat. he personally shook down the chasis for the race prep. Ol man its high time u started racing, coz the overtaking via pitlane strategy wont work anymore. I want 2 c u overtaking on the track.
Monty has broken his shoulder. Boo hooooo... cry baby cry.

My fishing advisor

Hmm, a pretty interesting day...
All my work got de-scoped, AGAIN. But I still have this excess bagagge on me thats really bugging me.
Had a nice long chat with a batchmate (whoz name I once forgot ;-)) with whom I think am more friends now than ever. I shall hence forth refer to this person as my fishing advisor.
Hey fishing advisor howd?
Came to know of some interesting "fishy" business going around me. Some guys have all the luck I guess ;-)

Weather looks good for the next 2 days and so have to pack in as much tennis as possible. Have to get a new No. 1 racket coz the No. 1 right now is getting strung. Will add the prince Outlaw to my arsenal today and hope we get along well.

Weather forecast for Bahrain doesnt look good though. Its like getting hotter and hotter. Stands at 38 celcius at the moment. Which means that we got another tuff one on our hands. Come on Bridgestone, get some juice into those doughnuts.

No guts no glory

Played tennis over the weekend. Can't actually call it playing coz i broke my guts, again, within 15 minutes of starting. But the shots are there and looks like its gonna be a good season.

I am also gonna start using this place for my F1 previews, analysis and predictions.
Will see at the end of the season how far/close I was.
It sure looks like a tuff season to start with. Ferrari are on the back foot.
Oz GP was a lottery coz of the rain and Bridgestone and the heat didnt help in Sepang.

The new car is out now in Bahrain. They have surely rushed it. But atleast now they can get their energies going into developing 1 car. Its never easy to work on 2 at the same time. So bye bye f2004...
As for Bahrain, am not expecting a win but if they are reliable enough they should be on the podium. Wonder where has Toyota got all the pace from. Williams are improving and McLaren would also be looking to get their act together so it is indeed getting tuff. Renault remains a class apart.
But it all hinges on Bridgestone and they surely have to up their game if there is to be any progress.
Once we get back to europe (Imola) I expect Ferrari to get up there. Its a loooooong season and so all is not lost yet.
