The Man Who Counts Potatoes


Great video with my preferred Sesame Street character. The Count! My kids love it!

One potato, two potato, three potatoes more...

First Thoughts


  1. Red Bull dispone del coche más rápido en calificación (dudo que lo sea en carrera).
  2. Ferrari dispone del coche más competitivo (a muy poca distancia del Red Bull en calificación).
  3. No tengo claro que Mcclaren (o mejor dicho, LH) disponga de coche para plantar cara a Ferrari (decepcionante calificación, a más de un segundo de FM).
  4. SV re-confirma que es uno de los grandes (pedazo de vuelta, sin errores). Él, junto con Adrian Newey, son los claros responsables del exito de esta escuderia. Con el permiso de Mateschitz, of course.
  5. JB confirma que el año pasado tenia el más-mejor coche y punto. No esta a la altura del equipo (al igual que MW).
  6. FA vuelve a demostrar su gran capacidad de adaptación, haciendo volar el Ferrari (segundo mejor tiempo, a solo 71 milesimas del mejor tiempo de SV).
  7. FM ha vuelto con plenitud de facultades (pedazo de última vuelta).
  8. LH es muy bueno. Ya veremos si el coche acompaña en carrera.
  9. MS va a tener que trabajar muchisimo, y encima para nada (el Mercedes no esta para ganar carreras, de momento). Es una lastima.
  10. Cuatro grandisimos pilotos con buenos o muy buenos coches y MS. Vamos, que la cosa promete.

Please Remove the Protective Film


Finally, a few words of common sense about the plastic film that protects every display. How many people never remove the aforementioned film?

* Found it at Gigaset SL370 User guide.

Lewis Hamilton Worst Enemy


Apparently, Lewis Hamilton has everything on his own to win the World Championship on the second of October at the Interlagos circuit (Brasil). Neither Felipe Massa, nor Kimi Raikonnen, nor the F2008 look to be enough to stop the Brit. Seven points are too may points with just one race remaining, specially if you drive the MP4-23 which "should" guarantee a place among the top 4 in every race, that means a minimum of 5 points, which added to the seven they would be 12, 2 more than FM can get at Interlagos.

However... LH, quick and aggressive driver, has more enemies than the Ferrari duo. The more dangerous, without any doubt, is Lewis himself. His excessive aggressivity and his habitual tendency to lose his temper in some situations, can take its toll to this bighead and frequently overrated racer.

Clicks and Clacks

Almost everybody knows that Playmobil figures were licensed in Spain by Famosa from 1976 to 1982/83 and were marketed as "los clicks de Famobil". However, I didn't know that clicks refers only to male dolls whereas clacks refers to females, mini-clicks to boys and mini-clacks to girls.

It Seems Grabiel Visited My Home

Undoubtedly, Grabiel Gray (aka Sylar) visited my home today. Or perhaps my daughter was playing with her Playmobil figures again.

The Last Five Races

Fernando Alonso has scored 25 points in the last five races. One point less than Lewis Hamilton (26) and two more than Felipe Massa and Heikki Kovalainen (23). Kimi Raikkonen ONLY scored 6 points in five races (0 points in the last four races). TOO POOR for the defending World Champion.

The thing is that FA drives a poor R28, whereas the other four guys drive a brilliant MP4-23 or a splendid F2008. And I ask you dear friends:
  1. How many points would FA have if he drove one of these cars?
  2. What must Luca Cordero di Montezemolo be thinking about having FA instead of KR or FM?
  3. Where are BMW's duo now?
  4. How can anyone think that FA could sign with Honda?
  5. Why BMW announced today that it'll keep Heifeld in 2009?
And my answers are:
  1. Enough points to lead the championship.
  2. 2010, 2010, 2010, 2010, ...
  3. Missing?
  4. Silly boooys
  5. Because FA will switch to Ferrari in 2010.
