And is that wrong? I am reminded of this saying:
In the long run the pessimist may be proved right, but the optimist has a better time on the trip
or how about this one:
It's better to be an optimist who is sometimes wrong than a pessimist who is always right

 

[Brogan]

A pessimist is never disappointed though

 

[Chad Stewarthill]

On the contrary, one could say that a pessimist is in a constant state of disappointment.

"Alonso has 5 more points than Webber. Can you confirm you understand the message?"

I seem to remember a pesky engine issue affecting the #5 RBR running down to Parabolica a couple of months ago... was later confirmed to be a brake issue...

"something is wrong with the engine...I am losing power" [as he gently applies brake whilst taking foot off accelerator]...

ATL11,
How on earth does Glock get into the lead?

Oh he'd be lapping him for the 2nd time, just a little ruse to our readers to see if they understand the 2008 pun...

Oh come on, if like me at the start for Brazil your on the edge of your seat....wondering whats going to happen? 1st corner smash, 2nd race on the bounce a RBR engine failure, etc etc.....only to find both RBR's race off holding station, the rest just chased in their own static formation (Bahrain 2 - The search for excitement).

My Kitchen ceiling got a new coat of white paint before Vettel saw the cheqerd flag, the race was a bit of an anticlimax.

I just hope Abu Dhabi is not a 3 car procession and Alonso takes the title finishing 3rd, this season has been good for a number of aspects. So especially after the season start in the desert, I just hope the last 2 races ain't dull affairs.

I just want the race to be good race with incidents, suspense and a good World Champion. I'd also love for Murray Walker to commentate and on lap 54 we hear "OH MY GOD JAMES......."
