That was the first FCY. Stupid mistake, it looks like.

Often I would say yes, for some drivers well......


And no, I do not think I could have done it better. Maybe not wreck but MUCH slower. And the car have a slight lean to the driver's seat hauling a fat ass around

I mean, at this point, should see some knocks on the license or at least good talkin to

Just hold off on the comments for a bit. Corner worker still on the deck.

Fingers crossed

Still no word at all on the Peacock broadcast...

only mentioned it will be a prolonged caution due to damage to the armco.

No it was just shown live briefly before camera switched. Scene looks clear now though so marshal moved quickly so suspect just shaken up.

Not so far, barely caught on the corner of the TV shot. Saw the flagger down but had to show the video. Mention of wall repair but nothing else so far

Yeh they’ve just shoved a concrete block behind the end of the Armco. Marshal was removed so is either back up on their feet or taken to medical centre. Obviously moved quickly so I’d take that as a good sign.

[Maelochs]

the mayor, the deputy mayor, and the sherif .... the three stooges .....

[Simmi]

Horrendous start to the race for BMW!

[Maelochs]

I don't mind the race call ... but the crew which handles the "color commentary" (read: filler (read: BS)) really gets on my nerves.

[Maelochs]

Car spins, announcing crew doesn't notice ,,, ooops

Not been a good couple of days for the Merrimans.

Racing, back on. Kobi still leads. Driving well.

And Porsche on Porsche action.
