R.I.P. Michael Jackson: The Greatest of All Time

It was a shock to the world and myself when I accidentally read this news in Yahoo.

I couldn't believe that he had died way ahead of his time. I believed that the world would not be same if he didn't show us his passion in his songs and dances.

You will be remembered as the Legendary "King of POP".

2008 Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix

It has been 4 years since I last visited Sepang to watch F1 race. This time it was a bit more special because it's the 10th Edition for Sepang to host this prestigious race event.

Wasting no time, I managed to book myself a pair of grandstand tickets.

The normal price for F grandstand was RM850.00 per person for 3 days, but due to online promotion for the 10th Edition, the ticket price was slashed to RM410.00. That's what I called a bargain!! I booked two since my friend was also interested to come along.

The catch is that you can't choose your seating location. Bummer!! I'm lucky that my seating are quite OK and can see the start/finish grid.

The online promotion tickets comes with some extra goodies. It included items listed below;

Ticket & Lanyard.

10th anniversary cap.

Radio pouch.

Radio for listening to the live commentaries by Martin Brundle and James Allen.

Kimi Raikkonen won the race from 2nd on the grid. It could have been a Ferrari 1-2 finish if Felippe Massa didn't spun out on lap 30.

Overall, this has been an unforgettable race and I hope that Sepang will always be on the F1 calendars.

Honda F1 Roadshow at 1 Utama

Chris and I was going to The Curve/Ikea via 1 Utama on Friday morning when we came upon the Honda F1 roadshow in the shopping mall.

The RA107 on display was last year car.

Some technical data on the RA107. The drivers for the team are Jenson Button and Ruben Barrichello.

A shot from far with Chris admiring the Honda machine.

Another shot from the side.

Front angle of the car. You can see the nose cone and the front wings.

Another front angle shot.

The car livery was designed towards the green earth and black color is the space. You can see the air intake at the top and side pods.

Look at those slick huge tyres. :)

A closer look at the rear wing and brake light. The team members name was printed on both sides of the wing.

From the label if read properly, it appears that I cannot touch the label sticker but I can touch the car instead. Hahaha...

You can also visit the sponsor of the car livery website at myearthdream.com. Luckily it was not sponsored by mywetdreams.com. Hahaha...

Honda RA807E engine.

The engine in closer look. It weighs around 95kg.

No roadshow is complete without pitbabes.

This babe is probably looking for her car keys. :)

There were 3 of them but I managed to take this while they were chit chatting. Should see them in real life instead.
