To give an idea of how slowly the pack was going, FRosen came out after his penalty about 35 seconds down and has now caught the back of the snake.

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.

Didn't seem like it in the past years. They don't look on edge of grip



No, that's how you race here.

Ok. The pack seems slow but then again if someone wanted to go away they would so they know what they're doing better than me :lol:

That was a bold move, Colton. It played out.

Hopefully once the fuel saving ends we will have some great racing, with all but 1 car still in one piece.

Rahal, Sato, Ericsson and Hildebrand might be able to make it on 1 more stop.

I think the tyre might have come off. The wheelman was trying.

I'm no strategy whiz but if people are looking at 30-35 lap runs, this should put everyone in a position to run flat out to the finish without having to save.

Awful crash by how it started and how close it got.

Daly didn't even see anything until the hit startled him. He was already on the gas again after clearing the crash.

Loose wheels are *vicious*.
