Anyway, it don't matter IRL, put Hinch in front, he'll still fuck it up and you'll get your headlines...

It actually looked like his right rear went down again to cause that.

Not 0.0005, but close nevertheless.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Shit, that was a tense moment in T4. Good job by Hinchcliffe to work that pass for two laps.

Hinch worked out how to be ahead across the line on the penultimate lap so he did the same thing again and because nothing changes in this artificial series he got across first.

Clever thinking by Hinch but not exactly a great formula, sorry.
I know I'm gonna get flamed for this but if its that predictable its not great racing.

What a finish! Thought for sure they were both going to the wall out of four. Excellent racing.

Nah, you're pretty much right. It's still so tense that it's hard to look away though.

What would you do to the cars, then?

It may not be the awesome slingshot racing that there used to be at Fontana and Michigan, but it's a damned sight cheaper and it's still exciting in a different way, there's the thrill of seeing this big pack of cars come closer and closer to one another but just avoid (in most cases) hitting each other. Call it the 'hide behind the sofa' factor.

Much less downforce, more horsepower, give the drivers a challenge for a change.

Yes, you're not going to get as much side by side racing but when it does happen you know its well earned.

Still Hinch won I should be happy, lets just all ignore the post a few races ago where I gave up on him cos of his constant fuckups shall we? :p
