On 30th March 2008, I waited for around 2 hours in the scorching sun just to catch a glimpse of Mika Hakkinen, 2 times F1 world champion, do a test drive along Padang! I was lucky to be standing right in front of the entrance/exit to the tentage where the Hakkinen is driving out from. I finally get to experience the sound and power of the F1 race car live.
I could not do much panning when Hakkinen was whizzing along because the road side is packed with F1 enthusiasts, everywhere I turn there's a head, hand or camera popping up in my lens.
The only console is I could still get some still shots when Hakkinen's car is being push to the starting line or before being pushed back into the tentage!
