I decided to host the buttons because of PPS has been having massive bandwidth usage last month. Details here and here.

First it was the rally scene, now it looks like the Malaysia will some of lose it’s exposure in the Formula 1 scene too. Good thing we are still hosting 1 of the races so it isn’t too bad.

Petronas is considering transferring it’s Sauber sponsorship to BMW, which recently bought over the Swiss team. Petronas has been involved in Formula 1 for the 10th year now.

It’s just too bad. I think the Petronas green looks really nice on the car. At least I can still see it on the BTCC Proton Waja and the Petronas FP1 superbike too.

But we have to view this piece of news in both a “half-full, half-empty glass” point of view. It could mean Petronas will transfer sponsorship to the new team, or terminate sponsorship.

Went to survey the new petrol prices at Petronas ten minutes ago, at 12:40AM. Wanted to pump my car’s tank to a full tank with the new price as I was lazy to queue up with everyone else before midnight.

When I reached the Petronas near my place, I found that the prices was still the old prices. So I asked the petrol station attendants and they said that the price would only take effect at 7AM tomorrow. And they told me the hike is only 5 cents instead of the 20 cents which was rumoured.

When I got home, I discovered from SK that TV news reports had reported that it’s just a hoax. But I didn’t watch the TV reports myself so I can’t be 100% sure myself.

I’ll wait till tomorrow morning to confirm.

Anyway a petrol price hike is inevitable. Everyone better be prepared. Time to get a motorcycle!
