Multi-21

F1 01:30:00
Multi-21 is a phrase which will go down in history as the moment when Vettel established himself as a fast and ruthless racing driver who doesn't stop at anything to win. Multi-21 refers to the command given to both the Red Bull drivers toward the closing stages of the 2013 Malaysian F1 Grand Prix, which orders both drivers to hold position, and cruise...Read More

Kimi Raikkonen and James Hunt

drivers 04:16:00
Often Kimi Raikkonen has been compared to James Hunt, and their playboy lifestyles do have a few similarities. Both are world champions, and neither of them give a damn about the consequences of anything they say. The playboy lifestyles they lead were in stark comparison to their fellow drivers at their times. But the key difference lies in their core personalities. SEX: Breakfast...Read More

Formula 1 Malaysia 2013

F1 00:09:00
This was a messy race. With the wet track at the start, and rapidly changing conditions, it was a slightly random result. There wasn't too much drama at this race, and it was a boring race to watch. With the faster degrading Pirelli tyres, pit stops decide the outcome of the race, and there is less of wheel to wheel battle. The only...Read More

Mac Apps: The Games

applications 18:17:00
Although there aren't as many games available for Mac as there are for Windows systems, there are still more than enough games to choose from. Here are some of the games I think are worth buying. I'm not listing it in any specific order. I'll try to update this list whenever I can. TOCA Race Driver 3: One of the best all round...Read More

Kimi Raikkonen to Red Bull for 2014?

F1 19:50:00
Mark Webber is due to be replaced in 2014, and so far, none of the drivers at Red Bull's sister team Torro Rosso have impressed. Red Bull would probably prefer to promote António Félix da Costa to the team, or even Jules Bianchi, or Davide Valsecchi. So till they believe the drivers have achieved some level of maturity, they might sign up Kimi...Read More

Formula 1 Melbourne 2013

ferrari f138 19:01:00
Kimi Raikkonen won a race that could probably the most exciting and coincidental on in years to come. He qualified on P7, and then using a 2-stop strategy, he cruised to a win. This also tells us how the cars stack up in terms of one lap speed and race pace. @Sutton Images Melbourne 2013 and Abu Dhabi in 2012 were uncannily similar....Read More

Nokia Lumia 920 Vector Graphic Tutorial

Design 20:19:00
I had made a Nokia N9 vector graphic a while back, and I thought of making a tutorial for that. But Nokia has released the new Lumia 920. However, as the N9 and the 920 have similar bodyshells, they're not that different. The N9/920 is also a simple phone to recreate using vector graphics, so it's a great for beginners as it covers...Read More

Reinventing Formula 1 RACING

DTM 22:46:00
Formula 1 is the pinnacle of competitive motor-sport. With millions of dollars being spent on research and development to find every tenth of a second on track, it is extremely competitive and even the slightest advantage can translate into wins and ultimately championships. However, ever since Alain Prost retired, and Ayrton Senna passed away, F1 has lost that element of surprise and excitement...Read More

IRO Robot

IRO 17:39:00
This is the robot that my team and I made for the IRO. Although it didn't win anything, it was by far the fastest robot on the table. Due to a silly mistake of not loading the right program, it just completed half the challenge. For Formula 1 fans, it's a bit like the McLaren of 2012. Blindingly fast, but just not reliable....Read More

Geneva 2013: Honda Civic Estate Concept

concept 19:39:00
This is Honda's Civic Estate Concept. Now this is not car that anyone will pin posters of on their bedroom walls. But for those who actually have to spend real money and buy cars, this is very desirable. For an estate car, this looks fantastic, and this isn't some fancy concept that will never make production. This is the production version, with a...Read More

Formula 1 2013 Barcelona Test Summary

Barcelona test 23:01:00
This was a very interesting test session. There is absolutely nothing conclusive that can be derived from the test apart from the fact that the top teams are still fast, and the slow teams are still slow. @Sutton Images Here are the pointers, as usual. Marussia replaced Luiz Razia with Jules Bianchi as Luiz Razia's sponsors didn't pay up. Jules Bianchi is about...Read More

Geneva 2013: Lamborghini Veneno

concept 13:17:00
Lamborghini is back in business, making cars that are too busy tripping on acid and rolling in heroin to give a damn about performance figures. It doesn't really matter if the big wing, or the rudely large diffuser even work. This is what Lamborghini should be making everyday. This is the Lamborghini Veneno, unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show 2013. Performance stats don't...Read More

Gift Wrappers from Old Newspapers

art 23:54:00
Instead of buying the shiny and plasticky giftwrapper from the shops, use old newspapers to wrap gifts. It's a lot easier, and if you happen to tear it, you can always use another one, without having to go to the shops again, and the shiny plastic one is the most annoying giftwrapping paper to use. Instead of simply using the old newspapers as they...Read More
