'We are the Champions'

If you think that I'm going to write the lyrics to the famous song by Queen then you are wrong.In fact it was sung by someone from the Renault team after the team claimed the constructors title for the year 2005. Thanks to the new system to overhear the team Radio communication.Congratulations to the whole team for their dedication throughout the season. They will be also remembered as a team that dethroned Ferrari as Champions.I was not able to catch the action live because I was glued to Sun Tv watching thalaivar's Chandramukhi 200th day celebrations.But from what I saw during the commercial intervals, there were a couple of incidents that brought the safety car out.At one instance I saw our very own Narain crashing his car, but fortunately came unhurt.Could this be the end of an Indian's reign in Formula1.As it has happened throughout the season Montoya did not finish and Raikonen was chasing Alonso and the fastest lap of the race was the last lap by Kimi.

Chelsea 5 - 1 Bolton

Its not going to be too late before Chelsea can sing this song. One would not have predicted this scoreline after chelsea were one goal down during half time.Magician Mourinho sacrificed Del Horno and brought on Eidur Gudjohnsen with an all out attack strategy.The next 20 minutes chelsea scored 5 goals and played the kind of football which everyone would have liked to witness. But had Bolton got one more goal, I think it would have been different. Even though it was the usual defensive chelsea in first half, they played like true champions to secure an overwhelming victory.

Atletico Madrid 0 - 3 Real Madrid

Real Madrid won the derby with Ronaldo scoring two goals against the 10 men Atletico. But unfortunately Ronaldo got injured and his participation on Wednesday's CL match against Rosenborg looks doubtful.
I would definitely like to sing this song at the end of the season for Real Madrid.Come on Galacticos,its been a long time we have had an oppurtunity to sing it.

Yeah Bala.The true reward that vadivelu gets for his sincerity and commitment is Rajini saying that he looks forward in having vadivelu in all his forthcoming movies.

Heard Alonso, slowed down on the last lap. Was t a teasing tactics 'catch me if you can' style ?

Prabhakar,
I'm not sure of that.I thought it was some slow formation finishing from Reanult to enjoy their victory.But as you say it could also have been a planned tactic.
