A1GP Sepang, Malaysia


Malaysia's Fauzy at the sharp last turn of the lap

I got free tickets to watch A1GP last Sunday at Sepang F1 circuit courtesy of my friend, Wan. The weather was surprisingly sunny as it was raining almost daily in the Klang Valley. It was very tricky taking pictures of the cars moving at a very high speed. Some turned out pretty cool with the blurred backgrounds and all.

My home team lost a very easy podium place due to some communication problem. Malaysia's Fauzy dropped from 3rd to 10th place as a result of this. The sad thing is that Fauzy was leading the championship points going to the event. The organizers are investigating the incident. More info here.
