In case you might have happened upon my other blog, you may have noticed that I have a near obsession with the city-state of Singapore. If you follow carma, then you know I am also a die hard fan of F1. So imagine combining the two in one go. It's enough to send me into spasmodic fits of ectstasy and thank God almighty that I have just installed a satellite in my new Bujumbura home so that I can actually watch the race live.The Singapore circuit is unrelenting and, of course, now infamous for Piquet's faux-crash allowing Alonso to place higher. Regardless, the course is a work of art but with little room for passing. Therefore, qualifying is key and after yesterday's practice session, I'm a little worried about my man Hamilton (yes and Button too) but you never know.
So what's the best part? The Singapore Grand Prix is at night. So post-race, you can hit the town for some Singaporean revelry or go for the most exotic, luxurious (and expensive) Asian meal your mind can envision. I can barely contain myself!
