Connect

Apart from the fact that they are involved in any motorsport events. Connect relates to a personality and for some elements you would need to dig into their history.








Went uncracked.
The connect is teams that Michael Schumacher drove for.
Force India was originally Jordan F1 with which MS made his debut.
Renault bought over the erstwhile Benetton Team with which MS won 2 World Championship.
He drove with Ferrari during his most successful run and now has made his comeback with Mercedes GP.

Life bacaho

Identify X. For the definition of the question in terms of maths, X is a function. So you put something in X it gives out something else. For the answer of the question X is something more tangible.
X(B) = A in the same way as X(D) = C and X(F) = E. X is something related with G. At some point of time it was also something to do with H. It changes to something all together different once a while and surely would once more near the end of (allegedly) our time.
A

The answer is Allianz Arena.
It turns blue when 1860 Munich play (The Lions.), turns Red when Bayern Munich play (FC Hollywood) and white when the German National Team plays in it. Allianz in India is represented through Bajaj Allianz and the name of the stadium changes to Fifa World Cup Stadium during the FIFA world cup. It name is Football-Arena Munich for UEFA matches. It will host the 2012 UEFA Champions League final.

Yesterday was a good day.

Connect, apart from the fact that they are Indian sportstars. However, the order is important and in that order they've been the only ones to do something specific:







And the list goes on................
Well I suppose Manu is right that they've won Padma Shree, but the answer I was looking for is that they were in that order: Rajya Vardhan Singh Rathore (08) , Anju Bobby George (04), Leander Paes (00), Pargat Singh (96).... were the flag bearers at the opening ceremony for India in the olympics.
