After a busy weekend going on harbour cruises, weddings and club cricket semi-finals (yes, I've been a busy boy) I settled in on my couch prepared to watch the Malaysian GP. I thought lying down would be more comfy. It was.

2 and a half hours later I awoke to the sound of the Italian national anthem and saw Fisichella spraying champaine over his team mate Alsonso and Honda driver Jenson Button, who took 3rd.

I was completely unable to follow any part of the Grand Prix weekend and so will pore over the results and news articles over the next few days to catch up with the details.

The results were good, thanks to Fisichella, and it was almost a perfect result for futures bets.


OB 71.2 Units

M Schumacher 3 units @ $4.00 to win
Bet result: lost.
Schumacher lost 10 places on the grid due to an engine change so this bet had no hope after that.

Fisichella 4 units @ $4.25 to top3
Bet result: win (17 Units)
Qualified on pole and raced strongly to win comfortably. It will be interesting to see if Fisi continues to offer any value for the podium in Melbourne.

Rosberg 2 units @ $1.95 to beat Webber
Bet result: lost
Engine failure forced the young charger out although Webber was in front when he retired.

CB 88.2 Units (+20 in futures)
