FORMULA ONE DAY ONE
RED BULL RACING PARTY
Byron picked me up with Dio, and we headed to Edmunds house to have pre drinks (some wine and doritos, perfect model diet)
As Ed drove us all in his van to Sentosa, we sung songs and all go a little excited about the party ahead.
On the way to Wavefront I saw Leko, and bounded up to him, over excited i knocked him over. a couple of scrapes and bruises on both of us, we dusted ourselves off and headed towards the crowd.
Getting into the party was no hassle, unlike expected at these events.
Inside Laura and I mingled and put into plan project "Meet Mark Webber". It was easy to chat, as everyone was in such a good mood, and the drinks were endlessely flowing.
We met the engineers and mechanics for both Torro Rosso and RBR, they were very sweet and one of them got me a wristband to go up to the VIP area, but couldn't get an extra one for Laura, so we scrapped that idea.
Next we spoke to one of Mark's assistants, who said he'd go get him, but when he came back, he said
he'd already left :( sad times
The RB film crew spoke to us about making a short doco on life in Singapore. keep your eyes peeled for that one.
Jaime Alguesuari was wandering about the crowd so me being the nerd I am, went and asked for a photo with him. Laura said he actually looked pleased :) yay
Sebastian Bourdais was seen wandering about too, but we were sidetracked by Jarno Trulli and his manager Beppe, who were joking about with us.
We decided to check out the dayspa, forgetting the vital word "DAY" in spa... so needless to say after travelling really far underground by taxi (roads closed for F1). A Maseratti driver recognised Jarno in the passenger seat, and actually tried to race our taxi. The driver was not having a bar of it, clearly fed up with us! Jarno asked to drive, and the guy just ignored us :P We were all insisting he was a "really good driver".
We got to the hotel only to have them tell us it was closed, we headed upstairs and ate Pasta instead, Jarno and Beppe saying they never ate pasta after dark.. random!
Whilst watching
FTV they got a little excited when Doutzen Kroes (a victoria's secret supermodel) came on, and insisted on calling her, regardless of what time it was wherever she was. poor thing!
had to get up early this morning for a fitting, but no problem :) don't feel tired yet...
Stay tuned for day 2 of "project meet MW" :)
