Of EURO 2008 and Formula1...

The Finals of the EURO 2008 has been somewhat interesting. Many of the "favorites" were KOed, most recently Holland. Other notable countries that exited the tournement was France, Portugal, and defending champions Greece - Well, I did not have high expectations on them to defend the title anyway.

The semi-finalist - three so far - Germany, Turkey, and Russia. Tonight's match will feature a fierce clash between Spain and Italy. Of course, as a fan of Liverpool, and them having top scorer Fernando Torres, and him playing for Spain, I will surely go for Spain. However, there has been a new curse in this tournement. If you have noticed so far, all the semi-finalist were runner-ups for their respective groups, and Italy are runner-up for theirs. Well.. Will see what happens next.

Formula 1 - Felipe Massa won the race in France, with Kimi finishing second. Hamilton finished 10th, though can't really blame him, because he was penalised for crashing into Kimi the previous race. Kolvelainnen did well though, finishing fourth behind Trulli, but anyway, all that matters to me is Ferrari getting that one two. Congrats! Next race - Great Britain.

Well, that's all I have for the moment. All the best Spain too! May the best team win though. Goodnight.
