Senna’s 50th birthday
Today, March 21st 2010, would’ve been Ayrton Senna da Silva’s 50th birthday. Sadly, the Brazilian only lived to see 34.
Autsport.com has a beautiful gallery of Senna’s finest (and worst) moments, check it out.

Work on Senna vs Schumacher book pauzed
As of today, Monday, March 1st, the year of Our Lord 2010, I am officially no longer working on ‘The Encounter Down Under, an alternative version of the 1994 Formula One season’.
Confirming what’s already a fact of life
That saddens me, in a way, but it confirms what has been a fact of life for several months. Work on the Senna versus Schumacher story is postponed until further notice. Guesstimating for how long: 2 years sounds reasonable, and I’ll see how things are by then.
Website will stay online

A frightening thought: should I quit?
Last night, my wife had a frightening, yet understandable, and not entirely senseless remark. Since I haven’t done too much work on my Senna versus Schumacher story for some time — I’ve effectively added only a single chapter to part II in all of 2009 — she said:
“Why don’t you quit writing your book?”

Terrible, just terrible…
… that I don’t seem to be able to find the time to write my Senna versus Schumacher story. I haven’t given it too much priority of late — or rather, at all, in 2009 — due to all kinds of commitments in my personal life, work and church-related voluntary work.
So, sadly I haven’t done very much research on the 1994 French Grand Prix, let alone write the chapter. Realistically speaking, I won’t finish it in December, either, so I’ll have to aim for January at the earliest.
