Sheiban's Bio
First and foremost: I like cars. I like racing them, I like watching them race and I like the intricacies of them. Ever since I was a child, I loved watching cars race regardless of what series they were. In the end though, Formula 1 became my forte! When it comes to this series, I don't have any favourite team in particular. My favourite driver, on the other hand, is Kimi Raikkonen and I was really glad to see him take the WDC for 2007.
As well, I follow the Le Mans and the American Le Mans Series. It's very different from Formula One in that you have to think more towards the future rather than the present in order to win a race. At least that's how I see it.
Overall, when it comes to motorsport, I turn on my inner child and go nuts!
I also follow the Red Bull Air Race, a new type of sport that I like to call an "aerosport." I've been following it for the last two or so years and was given a great opportunity by Bleacher Report to go to the race in Detroit and cover it for them. The fellow in the picture with me is Alejandro Maclean, who like the other pilots of the air race are just cool guys. When asked about being a correspondent I had to think about it, but only for a microsecond!
Furthermore, I am the Formula 1 Community Leader. Don't worry, I don't bite! I'm a laid back type of guy, so if you want to chat or something, leave a note and I'll be sure to return the favour!
I also follow NHL hockey, NBA basketball, MLB Baseball, various football (soccer) leagues around the world and I just enjoy sports in whatever it may be. I think it's great, it improves your body and mind if you participate and makes for a great release mechanism if you're a spectator.

Most Memorable Game Attended
Blue Jays game in June 2007. Just a regular season game against the Colorado Rockies, but the game is tied. They go into extra innings and the Rockies are ahead by 2 runs at the top. The Jays come back in the bottom to win the game in extra innings. What a way to finish.

Sheiban,
Saw an amazing video of "Helicopter" doing some jinks and twirls and thrills in the Red Bull Air Race videos on YouTube.
Next time you do an article and as and when you do an article, could you please consider doing one on Rotary Wings Vs. Fixed Wings and get the pilot's opinions as to what they like about each, what do they prefer.

Sheb,
You always do a perfect job mate, need you ask? And I loved the way you bring it all alive.
Are you busy with school and all that? We rarely see you around. Visited your blog and stuff. Interesting stuff out there, even watched the YouTube video.
Take care,
Sarah
