2011 Formula One Singapore: (Part 2)

(continued...)

Food this year was catered slightly differently. Nobu had a suite open to everyone at Paddock club, while Jean Georges had their own restaurant at the lobby area, but not in the individual suites. It was super packed all the time and half the dishes we wanted had run out by the time we managed to get in.

The lobster is always good...

Not sure what these guys were doing, but I guess they are quite entertaining in their own way...

Decided to try catch the Big Bang guys at the Padang after the preliminary runs were over.


The walk was super far and the place was super crowded with tons of screaming fan girls waving placards and even an ipad!

At first we were stuck behind some barriers at the back, while the hoards of people who had probably waited for hours were in front. Luckily for us, the security guards decided to open up the front area and we managed to get a really good close up view of them.

Have to admit I'm not as familiar with Korean music as I am with J-pop, and even worse when it comes to Korean rap. Seungri I think is really good looking though!

Crossing my fingers that I'll get to go again next year!

2011 Formula One Singapore: (Part 1)

This year's tickets didn't come in a fancy box, but were no less exciting to receive...

Only had tickets for the Friday practice run this time, but the excitement was still in the air. We went early as usual to check out the events and take a ride on the flyer.

Cityscape of Singapore just before the sun starts setting looks pretty good although slightly hazy.

The Singapore flyer is probably one of the fewtourist attractions I would probably bring out of town friends to.

Highlight of the F1 is not so much the race but the Pit Walk. This time I made sure I took photos of the soon to be crowned champion Vettel's garage.

View from the drivers' seat?

Managed to snap a shot of Vettel as he waits to exit the Pit Lane.

One of the key reasons I enjoy going to the F1, is to try practice my panning shots. Managed to get a nice one of Webber...

Overhead shot of Hamilton...
