INDIAN STYLE BREAKFAST

Indian pan cake
Another Indian pan cake
Coconut curry chicken rice

During the F1 trip in Kuala Lumpur, we had Indian food for breakfast for 2 days which was really nice and cheap. 3 dishes and 3 Indian milk tea only cost us less than RM8 (NTD80).
If I can recall the Indian names of these dishes, I will update!

SUPER ROOKIE IN F1 HISTORY - LEWIS HAMILTON

Lewis Hamilton at Sepang International Circuit, 2007 F1 Malaysian GP
Hamilton led 2 Ferraris
Hamilton finished the race at the second at Malaysian GP, 2007
Lewis Hamilton, the new kid in F1 this year, but he has been on podium 3 times consecutively after 3 races since the beginning of this year. He has created the new record in F1's 57 year history! Now he even has the same points with Alosno and Raikkonen. He is only 22 years old, with good driving skill, and aggressive attitude.

Will he be the next driver champion or even the youngest champion in F1 history?

SOUVENIR FROM F1 TRIP



Because I still have a Kimi baseball cap for this F1 trip, so I did not buy any cap or T-shirt this time. But I found the MP4-21 model car at Sepang International Circuit! MP4-21 is Kimi's last racing car at McLaren and this model is not available in Taiwan at this moment. It costs me RM180, about NTD1800.
In another photo you can see Kimi's first F1 racing car at Sauber F1 team in 2001 which has been in my collection fleet for a while.

KL F1 TRIP PART4, RACE DAY WAS NOT MY DAY

Above: Lewis Hamilton, Below: Hamilton led Raikkonen
On race day, at 1:30 in the afternoon. Lewis Hamilton met fans at Mercedes-Benz booth. It was so crowded and I was concentrating on taking photos, then a pickpocket got my wallet......

Thought only RM50(NTD500) inside, but I do care about my Mont Blanc wallet, a gift from my lovely wife.

Anyway, I still enjoyed watching the race and Lewis Hamilton did perform well in the race.

KL F1 TRIP - PART 3 APRIL 8, RACE DAY

Race started at the first corner, McLaren made a good move! Also a terrible start for Massa from PP....
The Winner: Alonso of McLaren

We expected Ferrari can take lead according to their good starting position, but Massa did not make a good start. Both drivers of McLaren made a good move to take the one two positions till the end of the race; Alonso got the first and Lewis got the second. Kimi got the third, not perfect but much better than the past 2 year in Malaysian GP.

KL F1 TRIP-PART 1, F1 SHOW CARS EVERYWHERE



F1 show cars were everywhere in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; airport, KLCC, Sepang.... Why most of them are from BMW Sauber ? Because of Petronas, the major sponsor of this race and also the sponsor of BMW Sauber F1 team. Malaysian GP is kind of another home GP for BMW Sauber F1 team.
