I think that David and Ray have missed my point. On several occasions on this forum we have discussed race formats, reverse grids etc. My point is that when we had sprint races with no pit stops the faster guys were at the front (not just front row but say top 10)and the slower guys at the back. It was only if the quick guys DNF'd or had some other problem that they were in a situation to be amongst the slower guys. The reverse grid and compulsory pit stops puts the slower guys in amongst the quick guys and because of it they are now in a race for place situation and they don't have to yield to the faster car. We then get the Skaife and Ambrose situations. Skaife is a good guy, I am a Ford fan but I still respect Skaife's ability and I had no problem with how he reacted on the weekend
