Congrats to Dixon. Awesome job on the ovals by him this year.


I also really enjoyed the two brilliant drives from Helio at Sonoma and Chicago. Great to see a team and driver going for broke flat out.

Great finish there! Congrats to Helio and Dixon, a shame Dixon races for Ganassi though. :yuk:

Speaking of headlines, the scroll on ESPN still lists Hamilton as today's GP winner.

Brazillians like winning races way after the checkered flag has fallen don't they?

Another Castroneves victory handed to him by the stewards in contraversial circumstances... :lol:

True but how can it be accurately measured. Everything in the records goes according to electronic timing, yet the numbers don't quite tell the truth on this one. :p

IRL only or all series? Because the FILS finish here last year was 0.0005 of a second.

I think this actually might be the best IRL race I have ever watched live!!

Thanks to that long period of ridiculously close racing and a mental finish!!

Congrats to Helio for the win and Dixon for the title!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Can't believe they've ended the international broadcast already, they hadn't even done the podium. Has the ABC broadcast ended too?
