Melbourne Qualifying

15 March 2025 ·

What a great opening to the F1 season with today’s qualifying in Melbourne. The Papapya’s are in the front row. Too bad Piastri didn’t secure a pole for his home race. Verstappen taking 3rd position behind them is a surprise, as I expected Ferrari to be on the 2nd and 3rd rows of the grid. Williams did a good job today, and so did Gasly.

I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s race. I don’t think Verstappen can do anything to split Norris and Piastri at race pace unless we get some serious rainfall. McLaren still has the fastest cars on the grid.

52 Weeks – Week 25

I’m collecting 52 songs in 52 weeks. Every Friday afternoon, I will add a song to my playlist. The aim is to capture my energy and feelings for that particular Friday with the chosen song.

Week 25/52: Jamiroquai – Virtual Insanity

After 52 weeks, I will have recorded all the seasons, holidays, and high and low weeks of the year (from October 2024 to September 2025) in one self-curated playlist on Apple Music. Don’t use Apple Music? Subscribe to weekly updates via RSS.

Het derde boek in de ‘Erika Foster‘ serie van Robert Bryndza was een stuk beter dan het tweede deel. Het is maar goed dat ik door gegaan ben met het lezen van deze serie.

Dit boek heeft een lekkere vlotte opbouw waarbij ieder hoofdstuk spannend is. Ook vind ik dat de hoofdpersoon van het boek nu beter uit de verf komt, het karakter is verder uitgediept en niet alleen maar een ‘hoekig’ persoon die met iedereen ruzie maakt.
