The Brazilian Grand Prix 2008 was an epic finale to a sensational season. Both the title contenders, Felipe Massa of Ferrari and Lewis Hamilton of McLaren came here with a chance to capture the title. This being the little Massa’s home grand prix, he had an outside advantage. Although, Lewis was leading by a good number of points already and was on the brink of becoming the first black F1 World Champion, the undisputed leader of the racing world.
The Chinese Grand Prix 2008 was the penultimate round of the championship and as things were so closely matched between Ferrari and McLaren, a grand stand finish was guaranteed. Last year’s race was won by Kimi Raikkonen in rainy conditions. This year though, things were much better for McLaren in the rain and they always proved to have a car which handled better than Ferrari in wet conditions.
Here comes the much awaited review of the Japanese Grand Prix 2008. Just Kidding! I could have done away with the reviews of last three races but then decided to post it for the sake of completeness. What I’m going to do here is write very short notes on invidual performances and not go into description of events as I usually do. I’ll round it up with the complete race results. First up, its the Japanese GP won by none other than Fernando Alonso.

Airtel announced its own version of DTH (Direct to Home) for Indian customers just before Diwali. With its launch, customers are very much spoiled for choices. Airtel named its DTH service as digitalTV (yes, that’s with a small ‘d’). Like the Reliance BIG TV service, Airtel will also make use of the latest MPEG4 technology which promises better picture quality than the outdated MPEG2. Back in August 2008, I had posted a short article on Reliance ADAG’s BIG TV. You can read that article here.
First of all, sorry for lack of updates during the last month. I was mostly out of station and was kind of busy with other activities. To make up for it, I’ll try and post more frequent updates from now till the end of this month. Thereafter, it will be as usual from next year. I can’t promise anything but I’ll try my best to make things exciting. I’ll be back with a few interesting articles and a couple of missed F1 reviews from last season within a few days. So, keep watching this space and have fun.
