Because really, Eddie, Sylvain, Bob Holly, MNM, John Heidenreich and Ken Kennedy all need to take several steps away from the hair dye.

Other than that )

I realise there should probably be more details but I was also watching an awful version of 'The Sussex Vampire'. Damn you, ITV, damn you.

Today was just wow!

I mean, I saw Rossi clinch his 5th consecutive MotoGP title. Which was wow.

And then I saw Alonso become the youngest world champion ever in Formula One.

And it's wierd for a number of reasons:

1 - I'm kind of torn about this because much though I love Alonso I wanted Kimi to win. But at least a proper driver won. Not someone like Jenson Button (spits on him and all his works).

2 - Oh my gosh, I just want to chuck his precious little cheeks. He looked so happy. As did Flavio Briatore et al.

3 - For once I can actually say that I really did see the first time he raced in F1. And I said, from the first time that I saw him that he'd be a world champion. (basks in the knowledge that I can still spot talent) F1 one is one of those sports where having it isn't essential to winning, Villeneuve didn't have it and still became world champion, but it sure helps, mainly because he's one of the few world champions I can think of that didn't have it.

4 - when Fisichella came up to congratulate him and hugged him, I couldn't help but be sad because damn it, Fisi, that could have been you. It's as bad as with Alesi. They're both drivers with immense talent who never made it as big as they should have.

But yes, I'm happy, there's no way as a Formula one fan, even if I am a Ferrari fan, that I can't be happy. I can't wait for next year's championship though.
