Force India - Giancarlo Fisichella (car 21)

On the 2nd day, the day of the qualifiers, Force India's Fisichella fell afoul of the chicanes at turn 10. I managed to get a picture of him getting a ride back from the crash site.

Like Dith Pram, Sean Flynn, Dana Stone, Joe Rosanthal or Robert Neveu whom incidentally has a facebook page and did not add me when i added him as a friend out of nowhere.

me being presumptuous, and thinking a renowned photographer would add me as a friend, being a total stranger.

anyway, i feel like a journalist struggling to file a story in as short a time as possible.
The subject of this post is turns around the parliament and old supreme court, and the chicanes that are stirring up controversy.

Here are the pictures that speak better than i ever could.

Even the volunteer staff could not take their eyes off the F1 cars and the track.
Although only just starting, the excitement was palpable.


The infamous turn 10 where many predict accidents WILL occur.


At humble speeds, the F1 cars take the turn with ease, although i did see a porche spin out earlier when porches were allowed on the track to test the circuit.
I wonder how the F1 cars will do at more humbling speeds!!

More of turn 10 and the Old parliament building.

Constuction crew and security officers have their eye on the cars, just in case of an accident maybe? heh he
