F1

And so Michael Schumacher wins a historical 7th Formula 1 world Championship.

That man is amazing!

It seems that fate is on his side after all. From a disastrous start where he dropped to 6th after starting from 2nd place, he moved up steadily to 2nd place once again. Car by car before him dropped out with problems like tyre blowout, crashes etc. Lady Luck was certainly smiling at him today.

To top it all, when he was trailing the first car by 13 seconds, someone has to crash to get the safety car which effectively reduced the gap to 1 plus second. The race was really entertaining, full of dramas, overtaking and everything. There was so many retirements and crashes that only 9 cars of an initial 20 finished running.

So what if he didn't win the race? He won the Championship. Amazing, really amazing.
