Ferraris amaze!! (no suprise ... no surprise that they're amazing that is :=)
Jenson Button of BAR was leading the race for some time, but inevitably could not hold the prancing horses back: "I didn’t think the Ferraris were going to be so strong towards the end of the race but the pace of these two guys was just untouchable."
Rubens Barrichello (Schummi's teammate who won another one for Ferrari today) can speak 5 languages fluently (Portugese, Spanish, Italian, English, and something else). He is a Brazillian citizen with Italian parents.
PRESS CONFERENCE
Q: Rubens, well done. What was it like there on the rostrum, what is it like to win for Ferrari here at Monza?
RB: It’s magic. People say Formula One is boring, I don’t think today was boring at all, obviously for many reasons, probably most of the reasons are because of the wet. But they are here and as far as your eyes could go there were just people in the middle of the track, so it’s just an unbelievable feeling because they are Italians, they have hearts, just like the Brazilians, so it’s a very good feeling between us.

THE DIFFERENCE
~Author ?
I got up one morning
and rushed right into the day;
I had so much accomplish
that I didn't have time to pray.
Problems just tumbled about me.
and heavier came each task.
"Why doesn't God help me?" I wondered.
He answered, "You didn't ask."
I wanted to see joy and beauty,
but the day toiled on, gray and bleak.
I wondered why God didn't show me,
He said, "But you didn't seek."
I tried to come into God's presence,
God gently and lovingly chided,
"My child, you didn't knock."
I woke up early this morning.
and paused before entering the day;
I had so much to accomplish
that I had to take time to pray.

I have a feeling that Schummi let Rubens win...
Schumacher said that he will not take a back seat and let Rubens just ride by easy, but instead he'd push him and if he saw a chance for Rubens to get the extra points (to clinch the second place for the Driver's Championship) he would allow Rubens to take that opportunity. (I say this, since there was about half a second difference b/w Schummi and Barrichello and enough laps left in the race for Schumacher to catch up and overtake had it been a rival team and not his teammate with whom he has a great friendship.)
Reflecting on the race:
Rubens Barrichello (winner @ Monza today): “It was unbelievable because, to be honest with you, I went out, braked as late as I could and made the chicane, tried to look at the public so see if they were standing up or not because they could tell me if I was in a good position or not. But I couldn’t see and then I was on the radio saying ‘which position am I in, which position am I in?’ And then we lost communication up the Ascari where they said ‘Rubens, just calm down, you are in P1.’ I couldn’t believe it and then I shouted very loudly in Portuguese, so it was amazing.”
Schummi (runner up today): ” although you have to say had I not spun and blah, blah, blah, maybe it would have worked out slightly better but I think he deserves very much his victory today because he did a great race, he did a fantastic qualifying yesterday so it’s good to see him there”

Alicia Keys On Prince:
Alicia Keys On Prince:
"There is only 1 man who is so loud he makes you soft, so strong he makes you weak, so honest you feel bashful, so bold he defies you 2 be subtle, so super bad it feels super good. He is the only man that I've ever seen that lights a stage on fire leaving you to burn within it in a frenzy of movement, electric guitars, sex, pianos, dances, voices, splits, and song. Song so powerful that you are forever changed songs that make you laugh and cry dance and think. Songs that made me look at songwriting as stories that are untold passions dying to be heard. Because of him I have never wanted to be like anyone but myself. Because of his music my music has wings 2 be different. There are many kings, King Tut, King Henry The 8th, but there is only one PRINCE.
