Go Go Go Force India! Fisi puts Force India F1 on Pole

Go Go Go Force India!
That is what happened to all the Indian News Channels. And without any doubt, this one was the best news that came to all the Fans of Formula1 in India.
A day when there were no clear favorites for the Pole position in this weekend’s Belgium Grand Prix, Fisichella breaking the barrier for Force India F1 came as surprise to many. But Formula1 is always a game that throws in surprises.
The team that always used to be the back – benchers last season showed some promise at this year’s season so far. However, this is the biggest boost for Force India (using the Mercedes Engine) till date. Fisi stormed in to P1 after Qualifying in top six for Q3 and Q2. The Toyota of Jarno Trulli, again an Italian, was also performing brilliant as compared to its recent races and the 3rd on the Pole was the BMW of Nick Heidfeld.
But the news is Giancarlo Fisichella has now scored a Pole with Force India, with scoring 3 others with others.
Best of Luck!

Work and Work – Why is it difficult to work?
by Hemz on Aug.28, 2009, under Indianomics
Why is it difficult to work after some period when you have less or no work? I am wondering…
For last two weeks, me and my team mates have been under tremendous pressure and the work only keeps mounting. So I was wondering that if we get rusted a bit with little or no work, and all of a sudden you get hell a lot of work, how should you handle this?
A. Don’t Panic.
B. Just work
That is what we did. We did panic in initial two days, but then on we were able to handle things pretty well. Its just a phase and probably, we just got suprised.
Work that we used to do quickly was taking now a lot of time. A bit of here and there happened and finally, the dust setteled. That also explains why I have not been blogging of late.
Loosing my first phone
by Hemz on Aug.23, 2009, under Personal
If I had a Samsung Guru, I might have been able to trace the person who stole it! But no, I had a Motorola V3 Razor.
Worst of all, it got stolen in office environment. And since there is no other way to trace it than getting phone disable it using its IMEI Number. I use three phones and I carry them daily. I never had lost one till date even though I travel in trains carrying them. But I lost it at a palce where I believed to be the safest place.
Sob Sob!
Sensex prediction: August and September 2009
by Hemz on Aug.11, 2009, under Indianomics
After an unintended performance and scare rain falls you ofcourse can’t expect a blockbuster from markets. But the story lies elsewhere. With some of the economies around the world recovering a wee little bit, expect a slight jump in FII investment. After the reports that the tax heaven Cayman islands based hedge funds may get an easier entry to trade in India, things may just slightly pull up from here. Expect a pull back to 15,500 levels in the initial period how ever the end result will be around a sub 15k levels as it is today. The ideal level to trade at would be 14,600 if the present market continues its downward rally. Place some risks in auto sector, pharma and infrastructre. There may pay off by a small profit if exits are possible at 15k levels.
