bad match....

ah read this up... panerai and ferrari could be splitting up....

http://www.luxist.com/2010/03/04/panerai-and-ferrari-officially-break-up/

i have always maintained that these ferrari-branded watches are hopeless.......

and 5 years is indeed a long time for them to realise this folly.....

torn..?? the cars or the man..??

ahhh...

i am a big fan of MS.... but also a huge supporter of scuderia ferrari.....

so in march, my loyalty will be torn between the personality of MS and the scarlet cars with the prancing horse.....

even before the engines are fired up, there's so much to look forward to........... in fact i think we are going to witness a season where the most number of world champions are racing each other....

michael schumacher (7)
fernando alonso (2)
lewis hamilton (1)
jenson button (1)

too bad kimi is not joining the party...... if not we can have 5 world champions in a grid of 26..!!

wow!! such a mouth-watering prospect..... so it's time to get your ESPN subscription sorted out.... i cant help it but.... MIO TV here i COMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE...!!!

california sighting...

i was pretty sure i saw a ferrari california on the opp side of the road a couple of weeks ago....

but wasnt the car due for delivery in months to come...???

ah until i knew there was one out on the road ..... which was used for a magazine test drive as well...

so it is true... there's one out on the loose....

another sale...

OG is having a storewide sale.... and again puma and addidas at 20% off, including liverpool and ferrari merchandise....

i think tomorrow sunday is the last day.....

so act fast ok...

welcome back.....!!

it surely must feel good to be back .....

so it's also my pleasure to say welcome back felipe..!!

and next year will be so tough with fernando alonso right beside him..... but looked at how he handled the pressure of racing alongside kimi raikkonen...... he's now true-blue multiple race winner himself....

notice the watch on his wrist? i wonder if this is the same richard mille rm011 he wore when he crashed at hungaroring.... if yes, isnt that a tough little beast of a watch as well haha....

5 mins of fame.....

as promised, here's the 5 mins of fame for the scuderia ferrari cap by puma.....

thank you!!

perfect collection...???

even if one has TOO MUCH money, the scene is unlikely to happen........

ARE you really going to buy all the current production models from maranello ....?????

maybe one or possibly two...... but ALL??

no no....

a bruising line-up??

so it has been confirmed....... spanish bad boy alonso joins ferrari next year.....

let's not forget, the last time alonso had a team-mate who was as fast as he is, it created problems that became TOO HUGE for anyone to handle.... and the team imploded!!

so he went back to flavio, who made sure that his favourite will always be number 1 in his team.....

now for 2010, how will ferrari handle both alsonso and massa...???? let's see.....

and one more thing, all ferrari-kimi raikkonen apparel is obsolete from now on haha........ so how are they going to clear stock..??? put them on cheap sale..??

if you dun mind the older stuff, you can already order this "retro" cap for 5 euro dollars.....

the lucky 10.....

oh gosh....... it's another LE edition but ...... this time there's abit of difference in the execution cos hey hey there are only 10 pieces..!!!

i am quite sure at press time, all 10 are already accounted for...... so the rest of us can only admire the picture..... or go for the regular edition.......

indeed over the years there have been many LE for the rm011...... of course there are some winners, in particular the singapore gp edition and the chronopassion black edition etc

in comparison with the rest, the le mans edition looks abit muted ....... and so the regular edition remains the best bet at the most reasonable price.....

puma ferrari merchandise....

with the fate and future of kimi raikkonen hanging in the air, it's prudent not to BUY any ferrari and kimi apparel and shoes......

so hang in there while the ppl at maranello settles the choice of THE other driver......

bewareeeeeeeeeee.......

time to change .... my puma SPEED CAT...

my trusty pair of black puma speedcat in suede is beginning to give way... especially at the rear where the heel cup was glued to the shoe upper.....

i cant remember how much i have put them to good use but i guess nothing lasts forever....... so when it's time to finally say goodbye, it also means that i can start looking for a replacement .....

somehow when it comes to shoes, they fall apart pretty quickly when they are neglected...... the glue and joints harden over a period of time and then disintegrates.....

well let's not lament about when it's time to go shopping again haha........ and from the latest offerings at puma.com, there are a few choices worthy of consideration.......

future cat m1.....

if you like white sneakers, then you MUST look at the future cat m1..... i especially like the toe cap, very COOL .....

millennius

this pair is not too bad either......

speed cat

between the millennuis and speed cat, i would go for the latter........ cos the puma band looks better in white than in silver....... and the speed cat has the shape that i prefer....

but of course i know i have recently bought 2 pairs of puma LIFT racer......... errrr maybe i should put my plans on hold haha......

what does it look like...??

the more i looked at it, the more i think it looks like a fish that's smiling at me.... hmmmm somehow it reminds me of the shark that likes to smile in Finding Nemo.... haha

now this is my favourite part of the car........ THE DIFFUSOR..!! LOOK AT THE HUGE DIFFUSOR..!!!

AWESOME....!!!

all packed up...... for singapura...

immediately after the race at monza the teams have all packed up...... and soon they will bye bye to europe and descent upon singapore for 2nd time in a row......

after so many races this season, i still find it strangely unsettling to see the brawn GP team and drivers fighting for honours at the top.....

it was only 12 months ago where felipe massa was battling lewis hamilton for the drivers' world championship and now? no massa for the rest of the season and lewis hamilton has lost all mathematical chances of defending his world title.........

will i be at marina bay this year?...... well i am kinda undecided at this time........ well if i could get my hands on THE PADDOCK CLUB!!! I WILL GO..!!

cheers....

wanna fly?

i am so inspired when i saw this picture of the new MB SLS AMG......... cos it looks like the car is go to take off, haha.....

the front is all retro..... but the rear just does not gel with the design theme.....

sorry MB.... you'd better learn from the italians ...

they can even make a small car really sexyyyyyy.......... like what u see below:

no longer new..... but

as newness overcomes the present and the old, there comes a time when even the most beautiful things we behold now will have to move aside for the latest and brightest.....

so even though the 360 is no longer a coveted piece of machinery, it is still a ferrari nonetheless..... and is still good enough to catch the attention of a few...... furthermore it doesnt need the tagline such as the ultimate driving machine to be attractive for the many motorsport fans around the world....

which is why giancarlo fisichella could not say NO when ferrari knocks on the door...... such is the appeal of the marque of the prancing horse..... no sane italian can resist the lure of racing for ferrari.....

history in the making....

history was made last week when the prancing horse piloted by luca badoer qualified last.....

but this week at spa, all witnessed more history in the making as force india scored pole position... while luca badoer came in last ...AGAIN.....

to make matters worse, he spun off the track and was stuck in a gravel trap.... i hate to say this but this shd be the last time he's racing for ferrari, i am afraid so

puma lift racer ferrari sneakers

finally it has arrived...!!!!

so let the pics tell the story.......

oh it feels so great and comfortable....... all thanks to lkk......

although he said he would be wearing his on the drive back, i was so sad that he didnt in the end..... haha cos he was wearing his trusty black bata leather shoes.....

puma news from KL part 2.....

hot news from KL.......!!

yeah yeah, task completed...... and in fact our friend went the extra mile in getting himself a pair ......

so not only one pair for me but also one pair for himself............. thank you lkk.......... haha

and now i have 2 pairs of puma lift racer sneakers........ that's nice isnt it.....

now the thing is let's not wear the same shoes on any same day ok? haha......

yahooooooooooo!!!

watch my head 2...!!

oh gosh....

thank god he's ok cos it's such a miracle....... and he survived not only a SMASH on his helmet but also a 5.5g crash into the tyre wall..........

OUCH..!!

watch my head...!!

one was struck by a flying tyre on the head.... and now another was struck by a piece of suspension component.......

once is considered a freak..... but a 2nd is certainly worrying......

one is dead but massa is alive.......

surely we all know motor racing is dangerous but seldom is flying debris THAT dangerous until these recent weeks.....
