Anyone Else Tired Of Yellow Flags For Debris?!?!
These debris flags are ludicrous. They spent something like ten laps under yellow twice today to "pick up debris" that just happened to coincide with the lead pack's pit stops.
The IRL should be ashamed of these yellows! It is worse than Trans-am's competition yellow (at least they don't make excuses about it). Has anyone even seen a truck roll out to pick up any debris? I haven't. Also once this debris is "picked up" why is the green flag not thrown? Why do they have to circle around so long. If they are going to throw the yellow for pit stops, call it a competition yellow. Don't insult our intelligence, at least send a truck around, or have a IRL guy toss a piece of scrap metal out on the track, then hop out an pick it up. something! Other sports like (american) football, basketball, hockey have TV timeouts, just call it that! I'm tired of them throwing yellows for debris!

If you don't like 'made for TV' fake yellow flag periods, I can name another series which didn't have any throughout 87 laps.
