The '2' Story

2 Ferraris in the 1st row, 2 Toyotas in the 2nd row, 2 Renaults in the 3rd row & 2 Hondas in the 4th row. That's the starting grid for today's F1 Japanese GP. Although Massa took the pole position, Michael is still a happy man. He will start just where he wanted & with Alonso where he’d have liked him to be. If Michael wins today's race while Alonso doesn't score any point, Michael will clinch a record 8th world championship title. So, it will a tough race for Alonso. Even tougher for Kimi who will start in the 11th spot. Hope Michael doesn't win the race while the McLarens & the BMWs will produce some surprises!

In the A1GP, Alex Yoong will start today's sprint race in the 3rd spot. Bravo!!! Hope he & Malaysia's A1 team can get many points from both race, the sprint & the feature race.
