| | A Champion Anyway
While the world is crazy over Lewis Hamilton's winning of the F1 Championship, I fell in love with Massa over his marvellously dignified speech...What could you have said if you lost the championship over just 1 point? when your best is not good enough? I might have blamed the car, the rain, the road, the previous races... or said things like 'if only this', 'if only that'..then everyone on team feels badInstead, he said:" Everybody did a great job, everybody worked really hard to achieve our goals with heart. But sometimes things don't happen the way you want, but then that is racing, that is sport. It is part of your experience, part of life. Everyone in the team should be very proud, proud about the job we did, proud of our race and our championship, and very happy like me"I like best what he said later. He said:" I know how to win and how to lose. This was just another day of my life, I will learn a lot from this day..."You have to give credit to this guy, that after such roller-coaster ride of emotions, he conducts himself with such dignity, maturity and true sportmanship (think about what Blake Aldridge said after the Olympic match)Very few of us are in any sort of championship race, yet everyone of us is fighting our own (little or big) battle everyday...When things don't go the way I want, or even go horribly wrong..can I not fuss so much over "I feel so depressed, so disappointed...", but try to look at it as "another day in my life where I will learn a lot..."
