A very interesting shot of Kaz Nakagima spinning, finally stopping. Sitting backwards just off the racing line. While in the background, you could see a corner worker, energetically waving the green flag.
F1 is normally, the most mind numbingly, boring form of racing on the planet. Or as I usually refer to it, technology on parade. EXCEPT, when it rains. Then it's helter skelter, the good rain drivers shine. Decisions, decisions, do they go with dries, Intedmedates, full wets.
NA$CAR races have been pretty boring this year.
The CoC, is tough as a boot.
Goodyear makes rain tires. Need I say more?
No more backing into a cheep cheesy, good finish. When an "all or nothing gamble" pays off. A move usually taken by desperate also rans who couldn't get one any other way.
Now they would have to bolt on a set of them Goodyear wets, & EARN it.
Are you listening Brian? I'm avalable, & I won't sue. After all, this is no sillier than some of your ideas!

Hamilton sure looked good today... made the rest of the drivers all look bad. He looked like he was running around there on a dry track compared to everyone else. Was glad to see him win in front of his home countrymen. Always a big deal for F1 drivers.
OH... and Hamilton... he won by over a full minute. Pretty amazing
