f1-related qns

bee told me that over the weekend at the zoo, lpheng's son asked him - which key on the keyboard is the fastest. he couldn't and didn't answer. but i immediately told him "f1" key. he was kinda dumbfounded for that moment that i knew the answer. heh heh...

during a training session today, my trainer told us that there are only about 30+ qualified f1 drivers in the world. and he said they are crazy people. not normal. drive like that. and they really need help... and i thought... hmmm, is that why "f1" key on our keyboard is also used for "help"?

how? rather lame right? anyway, for some unknown reasons, this year's f1 seemed super low-key to us. it came and it went. we almost didn't feel it. but on that very night of the race, we both managed to tune in just when the race was about to end. and we were both very excited about the final lap when alonso and what's his name was so close together. for that moment, we both were gritting our teeth and gave a huge sigh of relief when alonso crossed the finishing line. in all, after more than 3 hours, the difference in timing between the 1st and the 2nd car was 0.29 seconds! amazing! just imagine the teamwork and the precision of everyone during that 3 hours to get such a result!
