There’s a reason why girls, historically & traditionally, are not known to be sports lovers.
A girl, or to be more precise in the given context, an Indian girl watching F1, golf, tennis is as misplaced as a mickey mouse tattoo on a 27 inch bicep !

Ok, here goes.
The setting: Diwali night, 00:00 hours ISD, 4 girls, 5 guys, 1 room, 1 television set & Schumi’s last race – ever.
The race status: 15 laps to go. Alonso’s out in front, Schumi’s 7 th. Result’s a foregone conclusion. We are in it for the emotional value.
The conversation:
Guy 1 (Me): C’mon Schumi !!
Girl 1: Hey, Schumi means Schumacher, na ?
Guy 2: You got it !!
Girl 3: Which one is Schumi ?
Guy 1: Wait . . . . That one in red just turning round the bend … see ?
Girl 1: How many people are racing ?
Guy 1: 20 – 10 teams of 2 each.
Girl 1: wow !! you know so much . . .
Girl 2: Hey, how do you know the number of laps remaining?
Guy 4: Einstein, it’s written on the screen at the bottom !
Girl 2: If it wasn’t written, then how would you know? All laps look the same. How can you say for sure that they are not showing the same lap over & over again ?!!
@#**^%%!!## Now why would anyone do such a thing? Why don’t they think before asking such questions. . . .
Schumi overtaking Nick Heidfeld stopped me from giving her some of my juiciest profane words.
Girl 4: (suddenly) Hey, I want to see their faces.
Guy 1: hmm, ok. Let me call Bernie. He’ll do the necessary.
Girl 4: Who’s he ?
Guy 1 & 2: Never mind !!
Guy 1: he’s Kimi Raikonnen. He’s moving to Ferrari next season.
Girl 3: He’s so….. cute !!! When’s the next race?

if it is written in good fun then ignore the comment but if it is not than i'm sorry to say that you are generalising. many girls (in India) like to watch F1 and most of them do know who Schumi is. like some girls may have not heard of him, am sure there are some guys as well who may have not heard of him, because they don't watch the sport. these days i know of girls who watch sports other than cricket and football, and even in other sports like F1 and tennis they take as much interest, if not more, as guys.
