I MUST ADMIT, I AM STILL SPINNING

When I first read that the newly crowned champion of Formula One was going to retire I thought it was a joke. It has taken me two days to wrap my head around it. I was so happy to see him win and was looking forward to his being in the field for at least another seven years or so. He claims that he wanted to go out on top and spend more time with his new family. You can't knock him for that. The management at Mercedes was unhappy because he didn't give them any real notice. To be fair, if the shoe was on the other foot they wouldn't give him a notice either. It will be interesting to see what he does in the future and I wish him the best.
