Chemistry In Life Thirty-fourth Edition

Welcome back to Chemistry in Life. This time, I would like to share my personal view of Michael Schumacher, the seven time World-Champion of Formula One ever. Also, the short report of the Grand Prix in Sakhir (Man, I’m lazy to write the long one…), and Another View of Myu-chan.

Anyway, I’m sorry for the lateness of this edition. I have a lot of things, a lot of homework to do, so I have to delay this. Sorry. I’m a planned-blogger, not like the others who blogs at times, accidentally, on occasion, or updating almost every day. I don’t have time to write on this blog like that, because I’m so busy with college and other works. So, managing my blog and writing on it every 2-3 weeks, is a perfect way for me.

Before you read this, I would like to inform you something. Recently, I visited Formula 1 Official Website, and found a new column that is very interesting. It is called ‘The Lesser Known’. It has a few question (most of them are the same) for every F1 driver about their personality, secrets, possession, and so on. I loved that, since it’s fun to know a bit more about our favourite driver. So, I decide to answer the same questions, and put it here. So, this week you will have a special column, ‘The Lesser Known... Dian Anggraini’.

And now, take your time to read... Enjoy~ ^^

ANOTHER VIEW OF MYU-CHAN

*Indonesian mode ON*

10 April 2007

Setelah berhari-hari mendengar berita tentang tewasnya Cliff Muntu dan kekerasan di IPDN (Institut Pemukulan *bukan Pemerintahan* Dalam Negeri, red.), lama-lama saya gerah juga.

Gimana ngga, kasusnya memang sudah kelewatan. Hampir tiap saat, di manapun, kapanpun, dalam kesempatan apapun, ada pemukulan. Itu kata Pak Inu dan beberapa alumni, juga mantan praja IPDN yang ga kuat menghadapi siksaan. Sudah begitu, hampir seluruh IPDN menutupi kasus ini. Belum soal penyuntikan formalin ke tubuh Cliff yang ga semestinya, karena dilakukan oleh selain dokter.

Tindakan Presiden SBY sudah cukup benar dengan menghentikan sementara kegiatan IPDN dan memerintahkan lembaga yang katanya mencetak abdi masyarakat (pamong praja sialan!) itu, tapi sayang, kenapa cuma dua dosen yang di-nonaktifkan sementara dan diperiksa? Kenapa cuma Pak Inu dan satu dosen lain itu? Harusnya Gubernur Praja yang namanya Doni-entah-siapa-itu-nama-panjangnya dan Rektor IPDN yang bisanya-cuma-menyuruh-orang-lain-tutup-mulut-itu, juga diperiksa. Kalau perlu, semua dosen dan petinggi IPDN perlu diperiksa. Malah, mungkin beberapa praja senior.

Pola pendidikan macam IPDN, yang memakai kekerasan fisik itu memang keterlaluan. Militer saja bilang, kekerasan fisik (contoh: dengan pemukulan) itu bukan cara pendidikan militer. Ga sampai kelewatan seperti itu lah, kalau di akademi militer. Paling banter lari, push-up, dll, dan tidak dipukul. Selain itu, hukuman secara militer juga disesuaikan dengan kesalahan si taruna. Kalau dia salah hormat, disuruh melatih hormat yg bener (sampai bener, tentunya), kalau sepatu kurang bersih atau kurang kinclong, disuruh membersihkan/menyemir sampai bersih. Pelajaran lari, push-up, dll, juga disesuaikan dengan kemampuan si taruna.

Jadi pantas, militer itu tegas dan kuat, tapi ga sembarangan bertindak atau memukul, kecuali oknumnya (yang memang kadang ada). Nah, pamong praja? Yang saya lihat, kebanyakan bisanya bertindak sembarangan, se-enak-perut-nya-sendiri. (Satpol PP juga pamong praja kan? Kalau iya, lihat saja sendiri bagaimana mereka bertindak di lapangan.)

Yah... Jadi, Pak SBY, TOLONG PECAT REKTOR IPDN SIALAN ITU!!!! Kalau satu tahun tidak cukup untuk memperbaiki IPDN, pecat juga petinggi-petingginya. Kalau perlu, bubarkan saja. Ga perlu ada institusi pendidikan macam itu untuk mencetak pamong praja yang baik, kalau tetap menggunakan sistem pendidikan premanisme macam IPDN.

Btw, kalau nanti saya punya anak (ga peduli namanya nanti Cliff atau bukan), saya ga akan mengijinkan dia masuk IPDN kalau masih ada. Bahkan kalau dia masuk universitas atau institut lain, saya harus memastikan bahwa tidak ada kekerasan, apalagi yang keterlaluan dan berbau premanisme dalam pendidikannya.

11 April 2007

Akhirnya, Rektor IPDN, I Nyoman Sumaryadi dinonaktifkan. Posisinya sekarang digantikan Johanis Kaloh, Staf Ahli Mendagri bidang Kemasyarakatan dan SDM.

Hore~!! Tapi, tapi.. Bagaimanapun, pemeriksaan terhadap Pak Nyoman itu tetap harus diteruskan. Kalau perlu, masukkan saja ke tahanan, jangan dibiarkan berkeliaran. Tahanan rumah juga jangan. Pokoknya, masukkan saja dia ke Rutan. *evil grin*

12 April 2007

Hueh.. Hari saya kacau. Bener-bener kacau. Gimana ga, praktikum pagi saya kacau, dan sempat diomeli sama Bu Irma gara-gara semua orang kerjanya lama..

Udah gitu.. Jam 12, Keni kirim SMS ke Myu, katanya ga bisa ngasistenin... *gubrak* Yah, saya maklum sih, dia ada tugas yang harus dikumpulin jam 2 siang itu juga..

Masalahnya, kenapa semua orang di lab jadi tanya gini sama saya, 'Dian, Keni-nya mana?'

Kalau yang nanya praktikan atau asisten lain sih ga-pa-pa.. Tapi kalau yang nanya Iman P... Mencurigakan.

Err.. Sebenernya Myu juga lagi pengen nimpukin Keni. Dasar. Dua kali lewat di depan TU Prodi, tiba-tiba begitu ke lab, pamit lagi mau pertemuan...

’Kirain dikau mau meringankan beban saya yang udah stres karena anak-anak kita minggu ini kacaunya setengah mati, Ken... Udah kerjanya ga begitu bagus *kecuali ceweknya*, make larutan proteinnya pun nampak barbar sekali.. Zzz...’

Udah gitu, tahukah dirimu tenggorokan saya sakitnya minta ampun? >.<

*timpuks Keni*

*kabur*

13 April 2007

Dekan IPDN ditahan gara-gara memerintahkan supaya Cliff Muntu disuntik formalin sebelum kematiannya, untuk menutupi luka memar di tubuh Cliff. Ternyata bener dugaan Myu. Ada pejabat IPDN yang terlibat...

14 April 2007

Buat para tersangka penganiaya Cliff, bersiaplah untuk menghadapi majelis hakim. Soalnya, Myu dengar, berkas kasus-nya sudah diserahkan untuk diproses. Selain kasus penganiayaan, penyelidikan kasus formalin masih terus berlanjut, sebab ada indikasi banyak pihak terlibat...

Btw, hasil kualifikasi hari ini: Felipe, Akang Hamilton, Kimi, Abang Fernando. Merah-perak lagi, kaya minggu kemarin. Hihi.

O ya, kalau cowok lain berpikir bahwa kebanyakan cewek suka F1 karena pembalapnya punya wajah cakep, Dad malah berpikir harusnya Mum jadi cowok karena dia suka F1 (dan sepakbola, tentunya). Hihi. Dan anehnya, hobi Mum nonton F1 itu menurun ke saya. Nah, Dad juga suka F1. Akhirnya, jadilah kami sekeluarga pemirsa setia F1...

Dan, ngomong-ngomong soal Felipe-Kimi, saya digoda Dad. 'Antara Kimi atau Massa, pilih mana?'

Yah, terus terang saya pilih Kimi. Lebih cakep, lebih imut, dan juga lebih matang, lebih kalem di lintasan, walaupun sebenarnya dia orangnya juga cukup ceria dan menyenangkan di luar sirkuit (ya, walaupun tetep bakal lebih kalem dibandingin sama yang lain...). Kalau dia bisa jadi pacar atau suami saya, masuk kriteria lho. Saya ini orangnya keras, susah buat ngalah (bukan ga mau), jadi kalau cowok saya mirip Kimi, kalem dan tenang, enak. Ryorin juga orangnya kalem, tapi kadang keras juga. Maklum sih, Myu sama Ryorin itu sama-sama Capricorn. Bedanya Ryorin sedikit lebih dewasa dan lebih kalem.

Yang Myu bingung kalau ditanya pilih mana antara Abang Fernando atau Kimi. Jujur, saya cinta dua-duanya... Err, mungkin Kimi saja. Lebih cakep, lebih imut. :P

*disambit* Ya, emang bukan karena cakepnya doang. Saya lebih suka cowok yang ga terlalu banyak bicara, tapi di saat-saat tertentu, bisa jadi teman yang menyenangkan... Itu juga yang jadi alasan saya cinta Ryorin dan suka sama Keni. Satu masalah dengan cowok-cowok tipe itu. Kalau saatnya ga tepat, ngobrol sama mereka itu bikin bete, karena kesannya kita dicuekin. Tapi kalau pas, rasanya menyenangkan banget.

*kabur sejauh mungkin*

PS: Pembalap bertalenta memang biasanya cakep.. Daddy Schuey cakep, Abang cakep, Kimi juga cakep. Belum Robert Kubica, Lewis Hamilton (item, tapi manis), Nico Hülkenberg-nya A1, dan masih banyak lagi.. :P

PPS: Saya emang suka cowok imut. Kenapa sih? ga boleh? *lempar kulit kacang ke pembaca*

15 April 2007

Udah bagus-bagus di 10 besar, taunya Indonesia harus kena drive through penalty di A1.. >.< Jadilah, no.1 dari belakang. Siyal.

Btw, Jerman juara dunia!!! *lempar bantal ke Daddy Schuey* Nico Hülkenberg-na cakep... *blushed* Mirip Kimi... *ditendang*

Dan.. Felipe akhirnya mendengar omelan saya dan fansnya... :P Makanya, dia juara di Sakhir hari ini. Di belakangnya ada Akang Hamilton sama Kimi...

Abang Fernando? Ilang di belakang Heidfeld. :P

Dan akhirnya, Ambu juga Ryorin sukses berat pundung. Wekekek. Saya juga sebel sih Abang payah gitu. Tapi kalo McLaren payah, saya bahagia.. Wikikik. *kabur*

Ryorin, dilarang cemburu sama Kimi. Udah sama-sama nikah juga... :P

*kabur sejauh mungkin*


16 April 2007

Ga ada kuliah Kinetik~~ *nari-nari*

Btw, ternyata manajer-nya Hülkenberg itu sama dengan manajernya Daddy Schuey dulu, Willi Weber. Dan kata Weber sendiri, Si Nico ini mirip banget sama Daddy Schuey.. Bukan tampangnya, tapi karakternya... Dan mungkin, dia bisa jadi 'The Next Schumacher' kalau masuk F1. Aih~~

Euh, dan dia seumuran sama saya.. cuma beda kira-kira 5 bulan...

19 April 2007

Besok adik angkatan saya ada yang nikah, dan itu sama teman satu angkatannya, satu prodi... Dan mereka baru 20 tahun! Well, buat saya sih ga masalah, tapi ini mah bikin orang satu prodi yang ketemu saya getol ngomongin soal cinta, pacaran, dan pernikahan.. ^^;;

Mulai dari di Lab Anorganik...

Diskusi soal pernikahan secara Islam dan Kristen dengan Daniel dan Tari.. Perbandingannya, gitu..

Fanny yang ga gitu suka pacaran dengan orang satu prodi... Dan mencontohkan pacaran yang dia suka itu kaya Myu dan Ryorin..

Fanny: "Kaya Dian tuh.. Pacaran ga sama temen satu prodi.." *lirik Myu* "Pacarnya anak Biologi, iya kan?"
Myu: "Iyah."

ROTFLMAO. Kenapa saya yang dijadikan contoh~~??? *timpuks Fanny*

Terus.. di Lab Biokimia juga...

Heheh, tapi cerita soal yang lain dulu yah... *kabur*

*balik lagi*

Yah, harap maklum, soalnya kalau di Lab Biokimia, cerita harus dimulai dari acara minum teh bersama...

*timpuks Keni sebelum protes*

Heh. Ya iya lah... Mana hari ini Keni-nya ada, lagi.. *dijitak*

Jadilah seperti ini waktu Myu ke ruang asisten untuk mencari kartu praktikan yang dengan suksesnya menghilang dari meja...

Keni: "Dian~ Ayo minum teh..."
Myu *masuk ruangan*: "Oh... hai~"
Puti: "Tuh, udah dibikinin sama Keni..."
Myu: "Aih, makasih.."
Keni: "Eh, ini mah buat saya sendiri.."
Myu: *cuek* *lirik Keni* "Mana? Sini." *ambil gelas sendiri*

Selanjutnya tentu bisa ditebak... :P Alias, semua orang di ruangan itu sepakat menggoda cowok yang bahkan kata Lily pun namanya manis dan mirip cewe (namanya, Keni.. bukan orangnya. Namanya doang. Ga usah protes!).

Salah sendiri, harusnya kita minum teh-nya berdua aja, Ken.. *disambit*

Halah. Sampai lupa bilang ke Keni kalau bukan cuma Bu Lubna yang ngira dia itu cewe... Tapi Lily juga. ^^;;

Sisi~~~ Tolong bilangin... *kabuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrrrr*

*penulis diseret sama pembaca*

Hueh. Tapi gara-gara itu, kartu praktikan-nya akhirnya ketemu. Di loker, diselundupkan oleh entah-siapa-itu. --;

Dan selanjutnya, entah berapa menit atau berapa jam sesudahnya, pembicaraan jadi soal anak 2004 yang mau nikah...

Anna: "Keni gimana sih. Masa mau aja diduluin.."
Myu: "Iyah. Keni kapan (nikah)?"
Keni: "Err... Sekarang juga lagi nyari calon istri.." *lirik Myu* "Cariin dong.."
Anna: "Btw, dulu Yeni nikah April. Bobo juga April..."
Myu *potong*: "Berarti Dian April depan dong..." :P
Anna: "Ga mau diduluin~~"
Myu: "Dian maunya duluan..." *cuek*

(pembicaraan disensor karena Ryorin juga baca waktu nulis ini.. :P)

*dikemplang Ryorin*

Heheh. Habisnya saya digodain soal 'pernikahan' juga sih... Malu ngomongin di sini... T.T Ryorin-nya baca.. T.T

*timpuks Keni dan Anna* Hayo, tanggung jawab kalian.. T.T Bikin orang jadi WaFF, jadi malu... T.T

Pokoknya kalian berdua harus tanggung jawab. T.T Harus. Haruuussssss~~ *pundung*

.
.
.

Dan dengan tidak terduga, pembicaraan langsung beralih ke laporan yang belum diperiksa, belum dimasukkan nilainya, dsb...

Keni: "Eh, iya. Laporan yang ini sama saya, ya?"
Myu: "Iya."
Keni: "Atau mau sama Dian aja?"
Myu: "Ga mauuuuuuu~~~" *jitak Keni* *timpuks pake papan tulis* "Enak aja. Ga adil."

Tentu, ga adil itu namanya. Sudah kesepakatan laporan dibagi dua, nak... :P Kalo ga, sinih separo dari gajimu... Sepertiga deh.... Seperempat, boleh? Semuanya aja deh kalo gitu... *dibunuh*

Euh, apa lagi yah...

Ahaha~ Iyah. Gara-gara Keni bilang dia 'available', Myu jadi semangat godain Lily.. Wekekek. Habis, Lily-nya cari cowok yang cakep, pinter, manis, baik hati, dst, dsb, dll, dkk..

Masalah Lily-nya masuk kriteria Keni apa ga... Mana saya tahu.

Masalah Keni-nya serius apa ga... Peduli amat.. *dijitak* :P Toh cewek yang dapet dia mesti rela ditinggal selama beberapa tahun buat studi ke Jepang... Dan itu entah jadi apa ga, trus entah kapan berangkatnya... :P

Ah, udah ah. Perasaan udah ga ada yang perlu diceritain.. *ngeloyor*

*balik lagi*
*ditimpuk*

Cuma pengen bilang tadi memaksa Keni nulis pengumuman di papan tulis...

...Ga maksa. RALAT. MYU GA MAKSA. Kan Pak Rukman yang nyuruh Keni buat nulis pengumuman bahwa ujian praktikum itu hari Jumat tanggal 27 April... Jadi, biarpun Myu juga dikasih tahu, Keni yang disuruh mengumumkan.. :P

Dan asisten ga disuruh bikin soal. Yay!! *lagi males mikir*

*ngeloyor beneran*

20 April 2007

Buat Nurin dan Bobo, selamat menempuh hidup baru. Semoga bisa menjadi keluarga yang sakinah, mawaddah, warahmah. Pesan Myu, hidup dalam pernikahan itu ga selamanya indah, ga selamanya bahagia. Selalu ada susah, ada senang. Tapi yang penting, jalani apa adanya kehidupan kalian. I'm sure you both will be happy, and the marriage will last forever. Myu sih emang belum nikah beneran, tapi Myu udah melihat begitu banyak kehidupan setelah pernikahan, baik yang bahagia, maupun tidak begitu bahagia.

O ya, semalam Myu nonton Kick Andy. Topiknya tentang mantan model Playboy, Tiara Lestari. Yang menarik bagi saya bukan soal dulunya dia model Playboy dan sekarang bukan... Tapi, kesediaan dia menjadi model inisiasi dini bayi yang benar, yang digagas oleh ibu mertuanya.

Jadi gini, ibu mertuanya Tiara itu adalah, yah, bisa dibilang aktivis masalah ASI (Air Susu Ibu) . Dia dan Tiara, merencanakan untuk merekam proses inisiasi dini bayi Tiara nanti saat Tiara melahirkan. Tentu, dengan seizin suami Tiara sendiri, Andi Sjarief.

Katanya, proses inisiasi dini yang selama ini dilakukan orang itu belum benar. Yang benar adalah, si bayi diletakkan dalam posisi setengah tengkurap.. Err, miring ke samping gitu lah kepalanya... Di dada ibunya. Nah, si bayi ini ga boleh diangkat dari dada sang ibu minimal selama 30 menit, maksimal 1 jam. Dan selama waktu itu, kita biarin si bayi mencari sendiri puting susu ibunya sampai dapat.

Terus, katanya, dada seorang ibu yang baru melahirkan itu bener-bener... Istilahnya, ajaib. Dia punya pengatur suhu otomatis yang... Ga sembarangan. Gimana ga, pengatur suhu itu ya si bayi yang dilahirkan ibu itu. Ketika si bayi merasa kedinginan, suhu di dada seorang ibu akan naik beberapa derajat, supaya bayi itu tetap hangat, dan ketika ia kepanasan, dada sang ibu menurunkan suhunya. Beneran, Myu ga tau harus bilang apa sama Yang-Di-Atas... Untuk menciptakan sesuatu yang tak dapat dirangkai dengan kata-kata... *speechless*

Dan, Myu jadi ingin sesuatu yang dibilang ibu mertua-nya Tiara:
"Buat yang beragama Islam, ketika nanti Anda (atau istri Anda, atau keluarga Anda) melahirkan, mintalah pada dokter atau bidan yang membantu persalinan, supaya sang ayah diijinkan untuk meng-adzan-i sang bayi di dada sang ibu. Karena itu sangat indah.."

Jujur, Myu bener-bener pengen seperti itu...

21 April 2007

Selamat Hari Kartini. Untuk saya sendiri dan semua wanita...

Happy World’s Earth Day! Love the earth, save the earth, and teach younger ones how to love and save the earth…


IN LOVE WITH MICHAEL SCHUMACHER

Born in Hürth-Hermülheim, Germany, 3rd January 1969, this man who nicknamed Schumi, Schuey, or Schu is a well-known but also controversial person.

This article surely is not for comparing Schumi with other well-known people, but more of my personal opinions and views about this person I called ‘Daddy Schuey’ (because I think of him as my own Daddy...)

The first time I knew Schumi was back in 1999, the first time I saw F1 on television, and his ninth season in Formula 1. Honestly, it was a tough year for Schumi since he had to retire from the championship for almost half of the season after an accident. But, one year with F1, saw Schumi’s performance for half a season, I fell in love with this Corinna Betsch’s husband.

For five years after that, Schumi was dominating the F1 championship. And after 13 years of his F1 career, he broke the world championship record, becoming the seven time world champion ever. It’s maybe annoying for some people, but for me, that’s an inspiration.

Well, Ferrari may have damn good car at that time, and Schumi may had a lot of luck, but those are not enough. Schumi is a man who has great talent, with high spirit, ambition, and discipline. He is also always willing to be hardworking. And, these are his superiority. As fellow Capricorn, of course that inspires me to achieve success like Schumi, on my own sector. I loved playing more, but when I had to fulfil my targets, I choose to fight like Schumi, though it’s not always successful.

Back to Schumi. As a star, he sure is not free from controversies. From his style of racing, until his team and his winning. Even there are so much controversies, that would take a lot of pages if we discuss it,

But, there was something interesting. In 1994, he crashed with Damon Hill at Adelaide, and in 1997, he crashed with Jacques Villeneuve at Jerez. All because the struggles to win the world champion title. At that time, Schumi was still ‘young’, unlike now, when he had participated in FIA’s campaigns about road safety, and stuff like that, for years. Now, he is different. Not that different, but he is wiser, and more mature, thanks to his wife, Corinna, and his children, Gina Maria and Mick. Well, if you read Interview with Michael Schumacher from June 2004 edition of F1 Racing, you may agree with this.

Well, as I said before, being a husband and father really affects Schumi. He is still the same man, the same Michael Schumacher, but he is really calmer and wiser now. Inside the circuits, or outside, in his ordinary life. For his last years in F1, he drove his car fast and surely, but also calmly, and carefully. Sometimes he won, sometimes he lost, but he faced it all with patient. Schumi was always so happy, jumping up and down in joy when he won the race. But, when he lost, he always tried to keep smiling, though maybe in his heart, he feels disappointed.

And, about driving, apparently he really loves the art of driving. Therefore, when Peter Windsor asked Schumi to took him in a few laps tour at Mugello with Ferrari 575M, he showed it. He showed his skill of driving, and made Mr. Windsor totally excited. With different cars, Schumi is always capable to drive wonderfully, and if it’s a race car, he could record a quick, fast timing without asking too much changes on the car. He changed his style a bit to be adapted with the cars. Peter Windsor said that Schumi was the real example of a driver who should be followed by other drivers. He was a guy who loves the art of driving, a genius whom heart is bigger than the sport he loves (Indeed, his heart actually is bigger than soccer ball or even race car.. *g*).

Schumi is Schumi. He couldn’t be compared with other people. Yes, in all matters of life, he is improper to be compared. For me, he is more proper to be admired, to be an inspiration. Well, save his weaknesses. ^^

Before this article ends, there’re still a few interesting things about Schumi. Last year, in Monza, he confirmed his retiring from F1, and this made all people who know him, from Ferrari’s tifosi until his rivals, and all the ordinary people in the world ‘be sorrowful’ with his leaving from F1 arena. Alan Henry said, Schumi is a person who always kind to everyone, always willing to hear and receive critiques from everyone. Maybe this is why everyone was rather sad when he left, though it’s natural, and F1 will always continues.

He is retired from the race now, but Ferrari made him a mentor in the team, as the assistant to the newly appointed Scuderia Ferrari CEO Jean Todt for the 2007 Formula One Season in particular scouting for new drivers, to be exact. So, now we shouldn’t be sad, because he is still there. Well, yeah, he may spend more of his time with his beloved family now…

But, again, Alan Henry said that we really shouldn’t be sad. We should be happy and show our respect to his decision, and to Corinna’s dream. She ever commented about Schumi’s career and said that they had enjoyed a lot of happy, joyful days. Years full of memories for them. But (at that time) she really want Schumi to come out safely.

Now, her dream is fulfilled. I’m happy, like Alan, because Schumi now could live his life happily with his family in Switzerland, spend his time with his little children, even if sometimes he still pay attention to Ferrari and F1.

And sure, Herr Schumacher will remembered forever. Inside or outside the F1 arena.

Wish you have beautiful and enchanting days now and forever, Daddy Schuey! Ich liebe dich!! ^^


FORMULA 1 BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX 2007 – SAKHIR - REPORT

No long report this time, because I am too lazy to write it here. Well, watching the race without company is really boring and sad…

From the qualifying, Massa took the pole. Again, there was competition between the two big team, McLaren and Ferrari. Behind Massa, there was Hamilton, Kimi and Alonso.

The race was a great day for Massa and Hamilton, since they were dominating the entire race that day. Even Kimi and Alonso couldn’t catch them up. Kimi ended up third, and Alonso ended up fifth behind Heidfeld. Well, Alonso was third in the first laps, but thanks to Ferrari’s pit-stop strategy, Kimi passed him after the pit and Alonso became fourth. After that, Heidfeld attacked Alonso and passed him, and from that time on, Alonso was stuck in fifth.

There were 7 drivers retired. First, Scott Speed and Jenson Button, who had an accident, then Liuzzi, Sato, DC, and Webber. And the last, though he was officially sixteenth place, Anthony Davidson who had engine problems.

Massa seems to heard Ferrari’s fans disappointments about the last time in Malaysia, showed a great race for us, and Hamilton showed that he should be considered. Another step forward for BMW Sauber, too, since their drivers, Heidfeld and Kubica, are in fourth and sixth place, respectively.

And, now the three person in the driver’s championship, Alonso, Kimi, Hamilton, are tied with 22 points. McLaren is still leading the constructor’s championship, but with 5 points difference with Ferrari, the competition will be tighter.
