Grosjean has always has speed, but its taken him a while to adjust to F1, and the first corner.

Kimi keeps going, he's consistent and he's fast, the hallmarks of a champion. Vettel seems to be really inconsistent with his racing this year, but has a better car, which will keep the 2 of them duking it out all year

between Kimi and Vettel I would bet Kimi this year. Lotus did a good car and he´s relaxed. Vettel is good only when the car is good. next year with the new rules let´s see what makes Vettel a good driver. a good car or he is really a top one...

amazing victory of Hinchclife in Brazil on INDY Car Series...

great race. Sato did a good race BUT the Canadian driver did better. amazing know that that thing designed for Carnaval is used for something good :)

I don't understand, for the life of me, why Sato didn't get black flagged for blocking at the end of that race. He almost caused a couple seperate wrecks all on his own.

But what an unbelieveable pass by Hinchclife at the end of that race. I saw him go really wide on the last corner and I wasn't sure if he would be able to pull it off but he did! Pure skill at the most intense time. Hoping he can keep in the race for the championship as it should get more people here in Canada talking/interested about racing....ala Greg Moore. ;)

Spain GP

Alonso won at home because as ALWAYS Ferrari screw Massa to improve Alonso´s race...

Mercedes is good on qualify but sucks at race, really, they REALLY need improve this...

Vettel was racing?

Mclaren is getting something by strategy and Perez seems to be improving...

INDY 500 is coming!

also Monaco GP is coming. glamurous circuit etc. But I think this race too boring!

somebody can tell me how the Detroit GP of INDY Series was? who won?

It was a pair of races run in two days. Mike Conway won the first race, Simon Pagenaud won the second race. And in both races, A.J. Allmendinger crashed out on on the first lap.

In NASCAR, Tony Stewart won at Dover after points leader Jimmie Johnson got too big of a jump on the final restart and was penalized for it.

The track there is so challenging, it made for great drama. You get some really great shots of the drivers fighting their cars around the corners. I still can't believe they did two 70 lap races. It must have been an exhausting weekend for them.

NASCAR had a two-fer on Sunday. Nationwide Series race got rained out at Iowa Speedway, so they ran the race in the morning and Trevor Bayne outran Austin Dillon after a late-race duel for the lead with Bayne winning (not too many days after getting married) and Dillon finishing the race in 2nd.

Race also included a pretty nasty crash involving Travis Pastrana and Max Papis. Happened just as I was turning on the race.

While at Pocono for the Sprint Cup race, it was basically the Jimmie Johnson show. Started the race from the pole and was relatively unchallenged for most of the race.
