I wonder whether the heat from the fire and the downcool from the water they were spraying changed the condition of the safer wall.


Steel melts around 1300°C higher than jefuel/avgas, so it might have warped it, but it's likely not to have done anything, the foam between the barrier and the concrete wall would have melted first, and I don't think that did either.

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.

Mixed feelings. I wanted racing, but I also wanted Blaney to win this.

The pessimism in this thread is amazing, the track looks fine, it's just a matter of figuring out if it will have any slickness to it, and there isn't any more rain in the forecast for the next few hours.

I'm sure you could drink it, I just doubt it will taste very good. :p

Also same here, I really would have loved Blaney to win this. If they go back racing, I fear someone far less likeable might go to victory lane instead. I guess we'll wait and see.
