I'm not 100% sure why exactly i am writing this blog post but i feel i need to say this (nothing bad honest)

In recent weeks I've had a huge increase in blog views/followers etc quite frankly i have no idea why, the only promotion i have to my blog is a link in my Twitter bio, i don't promote through begging my Twitter followers to read my recent post (surely I'm not the only one who dislikes constant tweets to the same blog post every five minutes?! A few is fine but the more you post it the less inclined i am to read it), i don't post it to my Facebook or to my personal blog (again, only have a link on my page) but love it or hate it, thank you so much for reading my drivel on F1 and MotoGP!

I first started this blog during last season, just before the summer break, at the time i wasn't sure what exactly I'd post about but i found myself wanting to write about the Hungarian GP, i quite enjoyed re-living the Grand Prix, looking in depth to race times/positions/strategies after the race, so i thought why not continue and if it becomes a chore I'll stop. Well, obviously that didn't happen.
Although my blog is mainly Formula 1, my race low downs also include MotoGP, I decided to include them both together because 1) this blog is for my benefit too, and i tag each post so i can filter them separately and 2) because i was too lazy to make two different blogs when anyone who doesn't like either or can simply skip the designated post.
What I'm basically saying is this is my blog; i post what i feel like posting, I'm not claiming to be good at writing because i know I'm not A+, this is for personal benefit, if you will, and if people happen to enjoy reading it than that is a bonus and i appreciate it a lot (thank you, thank you, thank you)

I know there are hundreds of Motorsport blogs out there, I'm just like one Pirelli tyre in a factory full of hundreds, I'm not quite good enough to get to be selected for a Formula 1 car but everyone starts at the bottom of the pile, who knows maybe one day this Pirelli tyre will be racing in a lower formula.
[I don't want to be a journalist though so i guess you could apply this to general life instead]

If you read this, thanks, it's now that time where i have to get some sleep so i can watch FP1 at Sepang in the early hours of the morning.
The Malaysian GP i know i am going to find hard to watch. The last time i got up early to watch a race at Sepang was for the MotoGP back in October, it started with excitement and ended in tragedy. Marco Simoncelli is Resting In Paradise, all i can wish for this weekend and every other is a happy, safe weekend for everyone. Forever58.

If qualifying is exciting as Australia I'll write a low down, if not I'll be writing a low down on the race. Enjoy the weekend!
