Jay should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Ralf's Girl, there are not many "restarts" in Formula One, so I do not blame you if you are unfamiliar with procedures. It is a standard procudure that the lead car slows down as the saftey car picks up speed to head back to the pits. What usually happens is the lead car slows to a dead crawl, bunching up the field, and then hammers the throttle to burn the tires and usually builds a fair lead by the time they get to the finish line. It happens all the time in Cart.

Jensen just made a very rookie mistake. However, he is not the first, even some Cart drivers, who are used to it have done that sort of thing.
