Schumi wins

Not very often a Formula 1 race is so interesting when the track doesn't offer too many overtaking oppurtunities.But I would still call the concluded 2006 San Marino grand prix an exciting one, just because Schumi won it.How long have I waited to see this moment - Schumi with his trademark leap at the podium - absolutely fantastic.

Though Alonso was pretty good and had a better car with him, he wasn't able to overtake Schumi who was at his defensive best(holding off Alonso right after the first pit stop).And this is what Schumi had to say about the track "We have learnt from the past that overtaking is nearly impossible in this circuit unless someone makes a mistake." Obviously he was refering to the 2005 grand prix where Alonso held Schumi to win the race and this time it was the other way round.

So Renault's be aware, after all its not going to be that easy this year to sing Queen's 'We are the champions'.While i'm hooked on to DJ visage, make sure that you are not made to scream Linkin park's
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall(or hit a Chicane :-) )
to lose it all

at the end of the season.Thats supposed to be a WRC track.:-D

PS: Thanks to some network problem with aircel in my area, the sms I sent was not delivered in time and I had to stay indoors with no other option than to watch the grand prix.Finally it was really worth it.
