Thank you everyone who was involved with this project... wow... there are so many people to thank and I don't want to leave anyone out....Thank you all of my fans - the people who believed in me - I love you all... I would like to thank Robert for the use of his PS2, I would like to thank the wonderful people at Sony for the really great 65" HDTV, which was the edge I needed to get through the F1 championship. The cinematography was great, the directing, the lights, what a great crew... gaffers, grips, coffee people, post-production staff for making me look so great, the stunt crew for saving my neck a couple times... if I forget anyone else you know who you are... uh how much time do i still have?.. wut? oh-okay-... and thanks everyone!
