"Red Bull makes you have wings... "
9am my phone rings: "Lydia, i have two f1 grand prix tickets, do you want them? "
An immediate YES followed.
So I was in for a very interesting and super exciting Sunday!
We took the bus to the F1 racetrack in Jiading... arrived there at 11.45 ish and the sky was getting darker. By the time we found our entrance, the sky was starting to drizzle. There were surprisingly a large attendance at the China F1- thanks to the "huang niu" I think a lot of people could get tickets at a very cheap price...
We had good seats... grandstand section 2a... just in front of the finishing line and the entrance to the pit stop. Just one right hand corner, was the 10th corner of the track...
Race was exciting right from the start... because it was raining (again, since Malaysian Grnad Prix ended due to the hard rain). The first six laps started with the safety car... but once the safety car came off... the real fun began! A lot of overtakings especially between Mark Webber and Jenson Button. Vettel who took home the championship was very lucky to be in front, hence he had gained distance when the safety car came out after the sixth lap.
It was really a wet and exciting Sunday f1 race with Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel and Mark Webber on the 1-2 podium. Moreover, this is their maiden victory- a historical moment for the f1 fans and the Red Bull team.
I feel especially happy despite the fact that Mclaren has not been doing well since the start of the season, that this F1 Season has started with a very interesting spin... looking forward to the next one in Bahrain! And to see other talents dominating the podium!
See who will fly next....
