Though I think it's an embarrassment that she's out there in general, that looked more like a simple case of the guys in front of her accordioning, her trying to avoid, and someone already being there. Hard to assign blame.
LOL, danica should not be allowed to drive after that... she could seriously have injured quite a few guys. She's made higher then average opsies compared to other drivers (maybe the exception is IDE ).
They shoulda merged the other way for it to become more interesting...
The Mindy FHonda is a crapwagon that should never have been built. The technology on open wheelers has outgrown ovals for a decade, and the result is that Mindy only delivers 'point and stab' drivers, preferably ones that have good marketing value, like Danican't and Milka Dunno.
The DP01 was built for road and street courses, with an optional oval package with neutral wings, no ground effect, and the ability to stay on the ground going backwards at 180 mph.
But hey, the idiot grandson (FTG) would never allow anything related to ChampCar to exist beyond 2008. So, we wait for the first Mindycar that goes flying off into the grandstands.
Who knows, I'll try to have a chat with Kat this weekend at Zandvoort to see if she's planning on heading there (I'll advise her not to). At least they'll have a woman who can drive in the damn series. Would be sweet if she, Bobby D, and PT could team up with a good crew and give them hell. Preferably under the guidance of Paul Stoddart.
Who knows, maybe in 2 years FTG's family funding gets cut off, and we can get back to organising real racing instead of a toy for the idiot grandson.
Bonehead move on his part, sure. No human is above error. But just a few weeks after that mistake he showed his genius in the wet in Silverstone. There isn't any genius in IRL right now, except for maybe one or two which have yet to show their real talent.
I agree. I was disappointed to hear that the merge would happen in this manner.
Couple of races ago, she overshot her pitbox... Then she comes on the radio "Tell me what I need to do different next time!"
Well.. Woman.. How about you brake a little earlier and less hard.
Or in Kentucky in 2007, when she got new tires, left the pit, spun, got new tires again, left the pit, and spun again damn near hitting the safety truck... "I have no idea what happened!"... Well, cold tires, woman, you spun on cold tires because you should be taking it easy.
