With or without hair?

Especially when I see photos like this:

Right. Definitely not F1 Top Model material. But do you prefer Maldonado bald or with some hair? He looks rather aged bald, no?

Nando Lookalike Contest

Hello readers! I have a new fun idea for the blog: The Fernando Alonso Lookalike Contest.

To truly enter the contest, submit a photo doing the “Sad Nando Face.” You may post a comment, tweet it to me, or send me an email (thepitwalk at gmail dot com).

However, if you don’t want to show the world your Sad Nando Face, that is okay. You may also submit photos of Formula One people doing the Sad Nando Face.

I’ll start off with a few “precious” photos I have collected:

I guess team principals do the Sad Nando Face when things get tough for the constructors’ championship?

Perhaps a sad face is in order for Sauber’s decision to sign Sergio Perez for 2011?

Sorry Heidfeld… you haven’t got it quite right, but good effort!

Poor Hulkenberg. His tantrums aren’t limited to slamming his helmet into the locker…

Since this IS a contest there should be a prize. I haven’t decided on a prize yet. Perhaps a handmade item (such as pocket square, bow tie, hair accessory, etc)? Or a drawing done by me? LOL… sorry I’m no master of art people. But, I can do it if I try hard enough. 😉

Hulkenberg Takes on Vettel in Valencia

Remember Vettel’s sunglasses from Montreal? I sure do. So when I saw this photo of Hulkenberg in Valencia, I nearly “eeped.” That is to say, I made an “eep” sound (err.. almost). This is not scream worthy material afterall. Hulkenberg was wearing the same Oakley sunglasses that Vettel wore in Montreal!

So who wore it better? I’m biased towards Hulkenberg because I am imagining Vettel’s goofy expression in my brain. But to be honest, the sunglasses don’t look TOO bad on Vettel in the above photo. Maybe there was some photography trickery involved? Just kidding. Maybe that’s Vettel’s good side? 😉

My opinion on these sunglasses has changed a bit. They are not too bad on the right person. Please note I am not changing my rating to “good.” It’s just not at as bad as I initially thought.

What do other people think? Hulkenberg vs Vettel, which German is the winner?

P.S. If you like these sunglasses, I believe they are Oakley Men’s Crosshair Sunglasses. They are currently available at amazon.com for $110 USD. =X

Hulkenberg Learnt From Liuzzi

It seems that Liuzzi has become Hulkenberg’s master. What is Liuzzi teaching young Hulkenberg? … accessorizing with a lovely scarf, that’s what!

Here’s a photo of the Grand Master himself:

Liuzzi must be teaching him well… but I’m not sure if Hulkenberg should be listening? Oh dear…

Now it’s time to move on to the copious amount of material I have for Valencia. Sorry I didn’t get around to writing about Nicole and the baby she used as an accessory …
